Configuring an IPsec VPN connection with OpenIKED
IPsec is commonly employed by enterprise-grade VPN solutions such as FortiGate for its excellent security and richness of features, though open-source implementations such as OpenIKED and strongSwan also exist. It uses Internet Key Exchange (IKE) under the hood which is further divided into IKEv1 and IKEv2, the latter a more modern and secure version of the former.

LPT: Encrypt your offsite backups!
