Abstract:

Various embodiments of the present application set forth a computer-implemented method that includes intercepting a first system call from a client application, wherein the first system call comprises a first request to connect to a first destination using a first set of system call parameters; determining, based on the first destination, a second set of system call parameters; generating a second system call, wherein the second system call comprises a second request to connect to a target destination using the second set of system call parameters; and causing a connection to be established from the client application to the target destination based on the second system call.
