Split tunneling is a feature of virtual private networks (VPNs) that allows a user to access both a private network and a public network simultaneously. It works by allowing the user to create a secure tunnel, or “split” the connection, between their device and the VPN server. This tunnel “splits” the user’s internet traffic so that some of their data is sent to the VPN, while the rest is sent over their regular internet connection. This allows the user to maintain a secure connection to the private network while still being able to access the public internet.
