Vad är VPN på datorn?

VPN står för "Virtual Private Network" och beskriver möjligheten att upprätta en skyddad nätverksanslutning när man använder offentliga nätverk. VPN krypterar din internettrafik och döljer din online-identitet. Detta gör det svårare för tredje part att spåra dina aktiviteter online och stjäla data.

How do I Turn Off Split tunneling on my VPN?

Once your VPN is installed, check the Settings box for relevant options. ExpressVPN's Windows app has 'Split tunneling' on the General tab, NordVPN's has a separate Split Tunneling section, and CyberGhost uses a different name ('Smart VPN') but it works in the same way. You can usually hit an Add button and choose an app to exclude from the tunnel.

What is VPN tunneling?

The process of tunneling involves creating a secure connection (the VPN) for transferring data through an insecure environment (your regular internet connection.) It's called a tunnel because the data travels along your internet connection, but strong encryption protects its contents and no-one can see inside.

How secure is split tunneling?

Similarly, if you use a cloud-based web proxy that sends all your browsing traffic through an internet-based service directly from the workstation, split tunneling is almost as secure as being physically inside the corporate network.

How do I split tunnel my IP address?

The first step in trying split tunneling is to make sure you're signed up with a VPN that offers it (ExpressVPN, NordVPN, Surfshark, Private Internet Access, CyberGhost, IPVanish, Hotspot Shield and others provide it in some form.) Keep in mind that providers have very different levels of support.
