Home Office Solution during the COVID-19 Pandemic using Microsoft Azure VPN Gateway

In this real world-based project, I acted as a Cloud Specialist to create a solution for people who were working in the office to start working from home, normally accessing the environment in Microsoft Azure, and without exposing the entire environment to the internet.

To solve this business problem and come up with a solution compatible with the requirements, I defined that it was necessary to implement Point-to-Site (P2S) VPNs, so that employees who were working from home would close an encrypted tunnel between their computer and the Microsoft Azure environment.

Below are few screenshots:

Created the root and client certificates in Windows PowerShell

Able to ping the private IP address using GitBash.

SSH to the private IP address using the key.

Virtually connected to the private IP address of the Virtual Machine that is created from my personal laptop.

We can see that I am able to connect to the private IP address on a browser. Amazing!!!
