Deep Packet Inspection/Evidence
Method evidence record

Deep Packet Inspection

Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) is a network traffic analysis technique that examines the complete packet payload beyond header information to identify, classify, and potentially control data traffic. Developed in the 1990s for network monitoring and management, DPI analyzes packet contents to detect protocols, applications, and patterns, enabling security monitoring, quality of service management, and content filtering. DPI is widely used by Internet service providers, enterprises, and security organizations to monitor network traffic and enforce policies.
