Split Tunnelling

“Split tunnelling” has also come in handy, we're told. This technique sees traffic that absolutely needs a VPN to reach internal resources take that route, while other traffic travels over the public internet to public-facing servers.

Y'know, that technique everyone deploys on almost any VPN they've ever set up... because the last thing you need is 400 remote workers streaming cat videos on all day through the company's WAN connection...
