Deep Packet Inspection challenges for telecom and security vendors
2020-07-23 03:00

The goal of the survey is to better understand how DPI, a technology that identifies and details network traffic, is used by telecommunications and cybersecurity solution vendors today, and what they need from DPI in the future.

They show that telecom and security vendors and their customers are facing rapid changes as the cloud transformation, 5G networking, work from home practices, and the IoT have a profound effect on network users, devices, and services.

The increased use of encryption along with adoption of the stringent TLS 1.3 security protocol, threatens essential traffic visibility for many vendors.

Most vendors report that they have or are developing cloud solutions, with half of them planning to offer a Secure Access Service Edge solution, that integrates security and networking in a cloud-based service.

"Gaining maximum visibility into network traffic has become both more urgent - and more difficult", stated Jean-Philippe Lion, Senior Vice President of the DPI Business Unit at Enea.
