Explanation
Site-to-site VPNs tunnel encrypted traffic over the public internet, which is significantly cheaper than provisioning dedicated WAN circuits (such as MPLS or leased lines) between sites. This cost reduction is their primary business advantage. They are not inherently more secure than dedicated WAN circuits-dedicated circuits are private and not exposed to the public internet. Configuration complexity is comparable to or greater than WAN circuits, and reliability depends on the underlying internet connection, which is generally lower than guaranteed dedicated circuits.
