Systems, methods, and software can be used to verify a certificate. In some aspects, a request to connect to a Virtual Private Network (VPN) server is received from an application on a mobile device. A certificate of the VPN server is obtained at the mobile device. A device-level certificate verification for the certificate is performed. Whether an application-level certificate verification is provisioned for the application is determined. In response to determining that the application-level certification verification is provisioned, the application-level certificate verification for the certificate is performed. In response to verifying that the certificate passes the application-level certificate verification, the mobile device is connected to the VPN server.

Verifying a certificate

A method and a mobile device having a plurality of modes of operation, the method associating each connection interface on the mobile device with one of a plurality of modes; and restricting access to a profile for each connection interface on the mobile device to only a subset of applications based on the mode associated with the profile.

Method and apparatus for separation of connection data by perimeter type

A method and device for automatic login of a virtual private network on an interface change, the method: associating a virtual private network profile with a plurality of connection interfaces, each connection interface within the plurality of connection interfaces having a priority; monitoring the plurality of connection interfaces for availability; if a connection interface with a higher priority than the connection interface currently used by the virtual private network becomes available, utilizing the higher priority connection interface for the virtual private network; and if the connection interface currently used by the virtual private network becomes unavailable, transferring the virtual private network to a highest priority available connection interface within the plurality of connection interfaces.
