Forgive my ignorance, as I'm sure this is probably a stupid question. I am very much a novice to networking.
I'm currently working from home every other day. My employer configured the means to do so by instructing us to download and connect to Palo Alto Networks Global Protect, then setup a Remote Desktop connection to our office computers via Windows RDC. They alluded to a lack of encryption in saying that this was "not a secure connection" but that it will have to do for now.
So I already have VPN service through ExpressVPN at my house. It's configured in Merlin on my RT68U, and I only have select clients running through it. If I set my PC to run through my VPN, will it encrypt all traffic to and from my office? Or only encrypt to and from VPN server, such that traffic between VPN server and office is unencrypted? Or does Global Protect and/or RDC just render my VPN useless?
