Who actually builds the VPN

FOCUSED is the concept and experience design, not a fully built out VPN

To make this real, Miami University would partner with an existing network security company (like Cisco, Cloudflare, or Palo Alto Networks).
They would:

  • Build the secure VPN + filtering system

  • Integrate it with campus Wi-Fi and authentication

  • Help manage privacy, security, and uptime
