Systems and Methods for Application Based Interception SSI/VPN Traffic
First Claim
1. A method for an agent of a client to intercept communications from the client to be transmitted via a virtual private network connection based on identification of the application, the method comprising the steps of:
- (a) receiving, by an agent of a client of a first network, information identifying a first application from which to intercept network communications for transmission via a virtual private network connection established by an appliance to a second network;
(b) determining, by the agent, a network communication from a plurality of network communications transmitted by the client originates from the first application;
(c) intercepting, by the agent, the network communication of the first application; and
(d) transmitting, by the agent, the network communication of the first application via the virtual private network connection to the second network.

Abstract
A method for intercepting, by an agent of a client, communications from the client to be transmitted via a virtual private network connection includes the step of intercepting communications based on identification of an application from which the communication originates. The agent receives information identifying a first application. The agent determines a network communication transmitted by the client originates from the first application and intercepts that communication. The agent transmits the intercepted communication via the virtual private network connection.
