Encrypted Network Traffic Classification

Project
20020 ENTA
Type
New service
Description

The solution enables user to classify encrypted network traffic to different traffic categories. Example traffic categories are: Audio Stream, Video Stream, Audio Chat, Video Chat, Text Chat, File Transfer, etc. The classification preserves user privacy i.e., it does not inspect payload data from the traffic flows. The classification relies on temporal and spatial traffic characteristics of the traffic flow. The classification is performed based on AI models.
