Abstract
A disclosed method performed by a network device can include intercepting cryptographic certificates of host servers received in response to requests for encrypted connections between host servers and user devices, and determining that each encrypted connection is a suspicious connection or a normal connection based on a certificate validation policy. The method can further include causing decryption or metadata analysis of any suspicious encrypted connection and bypassing decryption or metadata analysis of any normal encrypted connection.
