Zusammenfassung:Techniques for auto-starting a VPN in a MAM environment are disclosed. A MAM-controlled application is launched on a computer system. Policy is queried and a determination is made as to whether to auto-start a VPN application based on the policy.

Network communications transmitted to or from the MAM-controlled application then pass through the VPN tunnel.
