Stunnel is an open-source multi-platform application used to provide a universal TLS/SSL tunneling service.

Stunnel is used to provide secure encrypted connections for clients or servers that do not speak TLS or SSL natively. It runs on a variety of operating systems, including most Unix-like operating systems and Windows. Stunnel relies on the OpenSSL library to implement the underlying TLS or SSL protocol.
