Now, split tunneling allows you to exclude certain apps from the VPN tunnel. Just to make it clear, this is done “globally” which means your ENTIRE connection is affected. This is done by connecting to a server in another country, where you get assigned an IP address from that server. That is what a VPN will do for you – encrypt the connection with 256-bit encryption, making sure no one can trace your browsing activities and find your identity. Imagine having several lanes where people drive, yet, you’re driving in a lane completely wrapped in a tunnel, separate from the others, where no one can see you. Many people call it an encrypted tunnel and think of it as a completely different lane on the road. This service changes your IP, encrypts your connection, and routes it through a virtual tunnel, which makes it untraceable by your ISP, hackers, and other online entities. To explain what is split tunneling and how it works, we first need to remind ourselves about how a Virtual Private Network works.
