Abstract

Some database systems may implement encrypted connections to improve the security of incoming server traffic. The systems may implement the encrypted connections using encryption keys known to both a proxy server and a server (e.g., a database server). For example, a proxy server may encrypt one or more communications between the proxy server and a user device, such as self-identifying information for the user device, using a known encryption key. The user device may, in turn, attempt to establish an encrypted connection with the server using the encrypted communications. Because the encryption key is known to both the server and the proxy server, the server may decrypt the encrypted communications and subsequently establish an encrypted connection with the user device based on the decrypted communications.
