VPN/Remote Network Access

The Michigan Medicine virtual private network (VPN) provides an encrypted communications channel that is required to access internal resources like file servers or internal Michigan Medicine websites. If you need access to sensitive Michigan Medicine resources from a personal or otherwise un-managed device we recommend using the Windows Virtual Desktop service which does not require a VPN connection.
