In a data communications network, a split proxy can include a split proxy server disposed behind a firewall in a private portion of the data communications network; a split proxy client disposed in a client computing device positioned externally to the private portion of the data communications network; a split proxy client interface to at least one client application in the client computing device, and a split proxy server interface to at least one server application corresponding to the at least one client application in the private portion of the data communications network. A tunnel can be established between the split proxy client and split proxy server. The tunnel can host all Internet Protocol (IP) data traffic between the client application and the corresponding server application in the private portion of the data communications network.
