Abstract
In one embodiment, a network security device is configured to monitor data traffic between a first device and a second device. The network security device may be configured to intercept a first initial message of a first encrypted handshaking procedure for a first secure communication session between the first device and the second device, the first initial message specifying a hostname that has been encrypted using first key information associated with the network security device, decrypt at least a portion of the first initial message using the first key information to determine the hostname, re-encrypt the hostname using second key information associated with the second device, and send, to the second device, a second initial message of a second encrypted handshaking procedure for a second secure communication session between the network security device and the second device, the second initial message specifying the hostname re-encrypted using the second key information.
