Protocol Detection
Netify DPI - Protocol Detection
Compared to traditional packet analysis tools, Netify DPI provides a much deeper analysis of data flows on your network, including encrypted traffic and applications that try to disguise their presence. Netify's protocol detection feature is built upon the high-performance Deep Packet Inspection (nDPI) engine - an open-source, high quality and active project.
Using Netify's protocol detection, you can expect to detect:
- File-sharing applications (e.g., BitTorrent)
- Various VPN protocols
- Online gaming
- Instant messaging
- Streaming media
- Remote desktop
- More than 300 additional commonly-used protocols
Being able to quickly identify and classify different kinds of protocols in your network traffic lets you pinpoint issues, including network congestion and suspicious activity.
Your Network, Your Rules
Certain network protocols - and applications behind them, like peer-to-peer file-sharing sites and VPN services - can be used to break the rules governing Internet usage.
Netify's DPI engine, combined with the firewall and QoS integration, provides any company with a straightforward, economical way to enact a "trust-but-verify" policy on its network.
