VPN (For Employees Only)
All systems for students are accessible without VPN.
When outside the institutional network, the EcoCost, DBSIS, and DVS systems are accessible to employees only by using the VPN service.
VPN (Virtual Private Network) is a service that allows the KVK community to securely connect to the institution's computer network from anywhere, such as from home.

VPN Installation on KVK Computers
If you are using an institutional computer, you will not be able to install the required program yourself.
