Abstract
A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium are described in which a connection service is provided based on a software development kit architecture for an end device that operates with an Android operating system. The connection service includes a library that, when called, sets-up a Hypertext Transfer Protocol connection between the end device and a proxy device using a function pointer and a portable operating system interface connect function. The connection service also generates and transmits a Hypertext Transfer Protocol CONNECT message, which includes a Proxy-Authorization header, to the proxy device, which triggers three-way handshaking between the proxy device and a target device, subsequent to an establishment of the connection with the proxy device.
