Abstract
Disclosed are various approaches for implementing certificate pinning in a tunnel client on a client device. A tunnel client receives a connection request from an application executed by the client device to connect to a remote server. The tunnel client determines that the remote server corresponds to a known pinned host and then determines whether the remote server presents a certificate matching a pinned certificate for the known pinned host. If the presented certificate matches the pinned certificate, the tunnel client allows a connection to be established between the application and the remote server through a network tunnel between the tunnel client and a tunnel server.
