In this paper we propose an architecture for secure access of computers inside an organization from a remote location. We use biometrics features and a one-time password mechanism on top of secure socket layer (SSL) for authentication. We also provide three layers of security levels for network communication, and also a mechanism for secure file accesses based on the security privileges assigned to various users is proposed. The files to be accessed from the server are categorized depending on their access privileges and encrypted using a key assigned to each category.
