In COVID-19 Pandemic, Internet traffic has been increased by up to 90%. Work- from-home culture is initiated by almost every organization. The technology adapted to access the Enterprises Intranet is VPN (Virtual Private Network). Infrastructure administrators implemented/updated VPN with the latest versions along with the security scripts to access Intranet. However, the contingencies faced by the organizations are out of their scope. Now VPN security is a big challenge for almost every organization. The Veracity is that no one claims the full prove security system in their Infrastructures. The latest Vulnerabilities have been exposed and indexed in context to VPN Hardware’s/Software’s/Configurations and Implementations. In this paper, it has been decided to analyze the exposed VPN vulnerabilities, along with the ongoing issues which have not been listed to date through the survey. The mitigation policies have been proposed based on observations.
