Why does IT care about traffic to non-corporate sites on an employee's home network?
- dudleypippin 7y agoI’ll assume that they’re VPN’ing into work and their IT doesn’t allow split tunneling. As a result, all traffic has to flow into the VPN concentrator as a bottleneck.

- pmorici 7y agoIf the laptop is setup to route all traffic through the corporate VPN as many businesses do it doesn't just affect your home network.
- koenigdavidmj 7y agoSome of the FedRamp standards require a VPN and prohibit split tunneling (i.e. Spotify goes directly out to the internet and the VPN only exposes routes to internal company hosts).
- pedasmith 7y agoAFAICT, most of them allow split tunnels for work VPN -- most work VPNs are set up to allow access to corporate resources, not block normal usage. Some places have very high security requirements.
