A VPN extends a corporate network through encrypted connections made over the Internet. Because the traffic is encrypted between the device and the network, traffic remains private as it travels. An employee can work outside the office and still securely connect to the corporate network.
Scotland, in common with the rest of the UK uses Pound Sterling (GBP) divided into 100 pennies (or pence). Scotland uses banknotes issued by three different commercial banks;- Royal Bank of Scotland, Bank of Scotland and the Clydesdale Bank. Bank of England banknotes are rarely accepted in Scotland.
There are thousands of cash machines (ATMS) in Scottish cities and towns. Check with your bank to see if you can use your card in these. If you are visiting the islands or remote areas, you may not be able to find a cash machine, so think about taking some money with you.
