Methods, apparatuses and systems allowing for the transparent intermediation of network traffic over connection-based authentication protocols. In one embodiment, the present invention allows a proxy to be placed into an NTLM or HTLMv2 environment and have it transparently ensure that NTLM transactions are handled appropriately, such that the proxy can interact (optimize/accelerate) with the authenticated content without breaking the authentication scheme. Embodiments of the present invention provide a proxy solution that is easily deployed and transparently fits into an existing NTLM environment.
