Deep Packet Inspection Bypass
Deep Packet Inspection Bypass Thomas Kjøglum Master of Science in Communication Technology Submission date: February 2015 Supervisor: Stig Frode Mjølsnes, ITEM Norwegian University of Science and Technology Department of Telematics 1 Title: Deep Packet Inspection Bypass Student: Thomas Kjøglum Problem description: Authoritarian governments consistently request the network operators to censor internet communications. Deep packet inspection systems and tools are regularly in use for this purpose. Several techniques have been proposed to bypass these communication restrictions. One example is the Kickstarter project titled "Operator, a News Reader that Circumvents Internet Censorship" by Brandon Wiley. Wiley has designed a protocol "Dust" [1] that aims to defeat a number of filtering methods currently in active use to censor Internet communication. Some basic questions are: How is it possible to bypass deep packet inspection filters with high likelihood? On the other hand, could the approach of Dust and other filtering bypass techniques be useful for masquerading malicious code? The candidate will start out by investigating possible techniques for bypassing a open source packet inspection tool, such as SNORT. The candidate will support his experimentation by method of setting up and running hacker competitions (or trials) where the participants’ challenge will be to set up, configure and run efficient deep packet inspection systems directed against various types of "subversive communications" generated by the organizer of the competition.

Deep Packet Inspection and Internet Censorship: International Convergence on an ‘Integrated Technology of Control’1
Deep Packet Inspection and Internet Censorship: International Convergence on an ‘Integrated Technology of Control’1 Ben Wagner, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München and Universiteit Leiden Introduction* The academic debate on deep packet inspection (DPI) centres on methods of network management and copyright protection and is directly linked to a wider debate on freedom of speech on the Internet. The debate is deeply rooted in an Anglo-Saxon perspective of the Internet and is frequently depicted as a titanic struggle for the right to fundamentally free and unfettered access to the Internet.2 This debate is to a great extent defined by commercial interests. These interests whether of copyright owners, Internet service providers, 1 (Bendrath 2009) * A first draft of this paper was presented at the 3rd Annual Giganet Symposium in December 2008 in Hyderabad, India. For their advice and support preparing this paper I would like to thank: Ralf Bendrath, Claus Wimmer, Geert Lovink, Manuel Kripp, Hermann Thoene, Paul Sterzel, David Herzog, Rainer Hülsse, Wolfgang Fänderl and Stefan Scholz. 2 (Frieden 2008, 633-676; Goodin 2008; Lehr et al. 2007; Mueller 2007, 18; Zittrain 2008) Deep Packet Inspection and Internet Censorship: International Convergence on an ‘Integrated Technology of Control’1, by Ben Wagner application developers or consumers, are all essentially economic. All of these groups have little commercial interest in restricting free speech as such. However some might well be prepared to accept a certain amount of ‘collateral damage’ to internet free speech in exchange for higher revenues. It can be argued that more transparent and open practices from network service providers are needed regarding filtering policy and the technology used. -

ISA09 Paper Ralf Bendrath DPI
Ralf Bendrath Global technology trends and national regulation: Explaining Variation in the Governance of Deep Packet Inspection Paper prepared for the International Studies Annual Convention New York City, 15-18 February 2009 first draft Updated versions will be available from the author upon request. author contact information Delft University of Technology Faculty of Technology, Policy, and Management Section ICT P.O. Box 5015 2600 GA Delft Netherlands [email protected] http://bendrath.blogspot.com Abstract Technological advances in routers and network monitoring equipment now allow internet service providers (ISPs) to monitor the content of data flows in real-time and make decisions accordingly about how to handle them. If rolled out widely, this technology known as deep packet inspection (DPI) would turn the internet into something completely new, departing from the “dumb pipe” principle which Lawrence Lessig has so nicely compared to a “daydreaming postal worker” who just moves packets around without caring about their content. The internet’s design, we can see here, is the outcome of political and technological decisions and trends. The paper examines the deployment of DPI by internet service providers in different countries, as well as their different motives. In a second step, it will offer a first explanation of the varying cases by examining the different factors promoting as well as constraining the use of DPI, and how they play out in different circumstances. The paper uses and combines theoretical approaches from different strands of research: Sociology of technology, especially the concept of disruptive technologies; and interaction-oriented policy research, namely the approach of actor-centric institutionalism. -

Deep Packet Inspection on Commodity Hardware Using Fastflow
Deep Packet Inspection on Commodity Hardware using FastFlow M. Danelutto, L. Deri, D. De Sensi, M. Torquati Computer Science Department University of Pisa, Italy Abstract. The analysis of packet payload is mandatory for network security and traffic monitoring applications. The computational cost of this activity pushed the industry towards hardware-assisted deep packet inspection (DPI) that have the dis- advantage of being more expensive and less flexible. This paper covers the design and implementation of a new DPI framework us- ing FastFlow, a skeleton-based parallel programming library targeting efficient streaming on multi-core architectures. The experimental results demonstrate the ef- ficiency of the DPI framework proposed, proving the feasibility to perform 10Gbit DPI analysis using modern commodity hardware. Keywords. Network streaming, NetFlow, DPI, FastFlow, multi-core. Introduction When the Internet was designed, all routing and security protocols were conceived to process traffic only based on packet headers. When the original equation TCP/UDP port equal application port could no longer be applied as developers started to implement ser- vices over dynamic ports, network monitor companies started to develop packet payload analysis tools aimed at identifying the application protocol being used, or at enforcing laws and copyright. This trend was further fostered by the introduction of IDS/IPS systems (Intrusion Detection/Prevention Systems) that inspect all packets with the purpose of detecting ma- licious traffic. These have been the driving forces for the development of DPI (Deep Packet Inspection) tools and frameworks able to inspect packet payload and thus easing the development of applications using them. Most tools are accelerated using custom hardware network cards such as those based on FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Array) [1] or proprietary silicon [2] such as chips produced by companies like Cavium, Radisys or Netronome.
