The Principle

The HOOC gateway (HOOC Connect) in a site (remote network infrastructure) establishes an encrypted VPN connection to the HOOC Cloud. In the HOOC Cloud, a separate, virtual and completely isolated network is created for each site.

In the same manner, the HOOC-App uses the service Secure Remote Access to establish an encrypted VPN connection to the HOOC Cloud. After the connections have been established, both connections are linked and a “virtual network cable” (Ethernet, Layer-2) is created between the site and the HOOC-App. The HOOC Solution allows to transport all IP protocols. Other provided applications in the HOOC cloud like Secure Proxy use the same mechanism.
