1. An apparatus for providing a remote work environment, comprising:
one or more processors; and
executable memory for storing at least one program executed by the one or more processors,
wherein the at least one program is configured to:
perform Virtual Private Network (VPN) authentication in response to a request for remote access to a work network from a user terminal,
perform user authentication in order to connect the user terminal, which succeeds in the VPN authentication, to the work network,
allow access to a user to log into an Operating System (OS) of the user terminal only after VPN authentication and user authentication have both succeeded;
decrypt an encrypted user data area of the user terminal that is connected to the work network after successfully logging into the Operating System of the user terminal, and
provide the remote work environment to the user terminal based on the user data area through the work network.
