VPN Setup Dubai
Business VPN setup in Dubai is quoted per deployment. Azizi Technologies installs site-to-site links between offices, secure remote access for staff reaching office servers, and encrypted tunnels to AWS me-central-1 or Azure UAE North workloads - using FortiGate firewalls and UniFi gateways with WireGuard or IPsec, MFA on every account, and Active Directory integration. Typical installs complete in one working day on Etisalat or du business lines, with full documentation handed over.

Which VPN you actually need
Three different things share one name.
Site-to-site links two offices, or an office to a cloud region, as though they were one network. Client-to-site gets an individual staff member into office resources from home or abroad. ZTNA grants access per application against identity rather than putting anyone on the network at all. They solve different problems and cost different amounts, and the wrong choice is usually a site-to-site tunnel bought where remote access was wanted.
Whichever applies, the account security is the part that matters. A VPN account without MFA is a single stolen password away from being an open door into the network it was meant to protect.
A VPN credential without a second factor is one phishing email from an open network.
Matched to what you actually need rather than defaulting to a tunnel.
Encrypted links to UAE cloud regions as well as between offices.
Typical installs complete in a day on Etisalat or du business lines, with handover documentation.
Which VPN Type Does Your Dubai Business Need?
We install three VPN types, chosen by use case. Site-to-site VPN permanently links your Dubai office to a Sharjah warehouse, Abu Dhabi branch, or cloud environment over IPsec. Client-to-site (remote-access) VPN lets staff laptops and phones reach the office server securely from home or abroad. Zero-trust network access (ZTNA) grants per-application access tied to user identity - the modern replacement for legacy VPN in larger organisations. Many businesses combine all three.
- Site-to-site IPsec - office-to-office and office-to-cloud links
- Client-to-site - remote staff to office servers
- ZTNA - per-app identity-aware access
How Much Does Business VPN Setup Cost in Dubai?
VPN setup in Dubai is quoted as configuration labour, plus hardware if the firewall needs upgrading. A UniFi gateway running WireGuard is leanest for small teams; a FortiGate 40F or 60F suits 10-50 users with full security licensing; multi-site SD-WAN is quoted per project. FortiGate licences renew annually; WireGuard on UniFi has no recurring fee - which matters for lean DMCC and JLT startups. Typical setups:
- UniFi Cloud Gateway + WireGuard: leanest for small teams
- FortiGate 40F (to 20 users)
- FortiGate 60F (10-50 users): hardware plus its annual licence, quoted together
- Site-to-site or cloud VPN config: quoted per project
What Does a Standard FortiGate VPN Install Include?
A typical 25-user remote-access install on a FortiGate 60F takes one working day. We rack and power the firewall, set the Etisalat or du router to bridge mode, configure the branded VPN portal, enforce FortiToken or Microsoft Authenticator MFA on every account, connect Active Directory so permissions follow existing groups, pre-configure FortiClient on staff devices, then test from outside the office before sign-off. Setup labour is quoted with the hardware, and every credential is documented at handover.
Do You Need an Etisalat or du Static IP?
For site-to-site IPsec and reliable remote access, yes - one end needs a fixed public address, and Etisalat and du business plans offer static IPs as a low-cost add-on. We handle the request and router changes; a static IP also lets banks and ERP vendors whitelist your office. From there we build IPsec tunnels from your FortiGate or UniFi gateway to AWS me-central-1 (UAE region) or Azure UAE North, so cloud-hosted systems behave like part of the office LAN.
How We Secure Every VPN Account
Every VPN account we create gets MFA enforced - FortiToken, Microsoft Authenticator, Cisco Duo, or YubiKey hardware keys - because a password alone cannot protect remote access to company servers. SMS codes are treated as weak. We apply least-privilege rules so each user reaches only the systems their role requires, log connections for audit, and disable split tunnelling where compliance requires. Larger organisations can migrate to ZTNA platforms like Cloudflare Zero Trust, priced per project.
