Ockam is a stack of [<mark style="color:blue;">protocols</mark>](reference/protocols/) to build secure-by-design apps that can trust data-in-motion. We provide a collection of programming libraries, command line tools, deployable components, and cloud services that make it simple for you to use these protocols within your apps.

To understand how these protocols work together, let’s create an encrypted portal to a micro-service in another cloud. In that process, we’ll discuss questions that naturally arise from the following picture: How is end-to-end trust established? How does it work even though the service is not exposed to the Internet?

In Analysis Corp.’s Azure VNet, on the machine that has the postgres client, create a tcp portal inlet.

The inlet first creates a tcp listener on localhost port _15432_. It then creates an outgoing tcp connection from inside Analysis Corp. to your project. Next, it creates a [secure channel](reference/protocols/secure-channels.md) to your project over this tcp connection. Finally, it creates an end-to-end secure channel to the outlet node in Bank Corp. through the relay in your project at address: _postgres._
