Stunnel should be able to secure any random protocol as long as the protocol satisfies the following requirements: • The protocol is TCP, not UDP. • The protocol doesn’t use multiple connections, like ftp. • The protocol doesn’t depend on Out Of Band (OOB) data, • Remote site can’t use an application-specific protocol, like ssltelnet, where SSL is a negotiated option.
