What is the best way to actually tell if the apps we use that access the internet actually use an SSL encrypted connection or if they just go over an unencrypted HTTP port?

Has anyone found a way to get into a Cisco protected Wi-Fi port? My school's Wi-Fi is managed by Cisco Clean Access. When I connect to the Wifi, it asks me for my user name and password, which I have. However it then asks me to download their agent, which I can not do on my phone. On androids, they can log on simply after putting in the user name and password.
Anyone know a way around this or a way I can log into the network?
Hi everybody,
I am tring to debug an android app. I need to pass all the http trafic of my htc desire s through a proxy server( Paros, WebScarab, etc.) that i have on my pc. I need to intercept the http messages.
I have rooted the phone and installed a proxy on it. I have connected the phone and the pc to the same wifi so that they will be in the same network. After this i have put the pc's ip in the Proxy Host: "192.168.1.2" and the port "8080" on the Proxy Port field because Paros Proxy uses 8080.
I cant find a way to do make this work.. can someone help me? Is there another way or am i doing it wrong?
If you just need to intercept messages, why don't you run a sniffer directly on the phone ? There are a lot, and most use the tcpdump binary, that is very handy ! They output a .pcap file that can be handled by programs like Wireshark, NetMiner, ...
Otherwise you could sniff the traffic with a pc that has a wireless card that can be put in monitor mode (old eeepc FTW !). Then filter out only the traffic from<->to device.
If you really need to pass thru a proxy... well, have you tried connecting your own pc to the proxy, or any other pc in your lan? Does it work ? I don't know if Paros has this feature, but have you checked that the relay is open for all hosts on LAN or just loopback connection ?
Hi,
Here’s my situation – at my office they use Cisco IronPort to monitor and filter all internet requests. A transparent proxy is used on the network switches to direct port 80 traffic to the IronPort server. Initially only the browser on my phone would work as that is the only app that passes the correct authentication. All other apps fail to reach the internet. But the IronPort server can be configured to pass through a type of device if it can be identified. Using the IP address of my phone to filter the traffic logs, it seems that some apps pass “Windows Phone OS” in the data packets. And by adding “Windows Phone OS” to the IronPort exception list, those apps now work. But most apps still don’t work because they don’t include any windows phone identifier in the data packets. Can anyone provide any additional info on this subject or a possible solution?
Thanks.
bump... any ideas... anyone?
Use cellular data instead of your corporate network?
Use apps that use the new socket APIs, or connect to HTTP servers running on a port other than 80?
Complain to your IT people (commoditization of IT being what it is, I'm actually surprised by this restriction)?
See if you can get them using proxy authentication instead of packet inspection for authentication purposes (WP7 supports proxy authentication on WiFi)?

Hello.
I need some help about my problem connecting to my work lan.
I have a PC in office connected to work LAN. I can connect to my pc from remote usign SSL VPN.
I have installed Junos Pulse on my Galaxy Note 10.1 and with it I can connect to my VPN and then, using port 3389, I can connect to my PC using RDC.
If I need to access my work network, I need to make some tunnel using port 3389.
I installed SSH server listening on port 3389 on my pc and, after VPN connection has been established, I try to use SSHtunnel to configure connection to my ssh server (working ok) and then starting Global Application routing. When I start SSH tunnel it connect to my ssh server and it works (for ex. using internet browser from android) but only using IP addresses.
If I try to use names instead of IP it is unable to resolve DNS, also if I set DNS option ON in SSHtunnel.
I cannot understand how to accomplish that kind of connection. I tried proxydroid, sshtunnel, autoproxy but they does not work (or I am not able to make them work).
I don't know if it is some problem using tunnelling with Junos pulse.....
Any help for me?
Thank you
