Abstract

A proxy connect component establishes a connection with a proxy, and provides the proxy with a name of a host with which to establish a connection. A negotiation component negotiates a tunnel directly with the host, and a security component classifies the tunnel as at least one of a private-tunnel or a public-tunnel based at least in part on a set of privacy policies. If the tunnel is classified as a public-tunnel, then the proxy is provided a set of security credentials to inspect and/or modify data passing through the tunnel, or a NULL cipher is employed. If the tunnel is classified as a private-tunnel, then the proxy is not provided the security credentials to inspect and/or modify data passing through the tunnel.
