Abstract
Disclosed are various examples for establishing encrypted channels or tunnels within a TCP or other communication session between a tunnel endpoint and tunnel client on a client device. A tunnel client on the client device can determine an encryption level based upon a bundle identifier of the application originating the network traffic, the destination of the network traffic, the category of the application, or other factors.
