Abstract
The techniques and systems described herein improve security and improve connection reliability by providing a framework for an application to communicate its intent to an authority service so that the authority service can enforce networking security requirements. In various examples, an intent to access a resource over a network is received and queries are sent to resolve a network connection that enables access to the resource. Information for the resource is then collected and stored together in a trusted and secure environment. For instance, the information can include proxy data or can include hostname data. A ticket can be created based on the information. The ticket can be used to establish and maintain a secure network connection to the resource.
