| 8:30-9:00 a.m. Service-based approach for the Next Generation Targeting and Analysis in Internet Interception Conventional techniques for LI on the Internet traditionally target either an IP address or a specific Port/Wire number. This approach is increasingly impractical in an age of VoIP, Instant Messengers and File Sharing - you do not know which IP address to target and frequently you do not even know that you need particular blocks of data until after the event. The session demonstrates some techniques to mitigate these problems, such as interception by "service parameter" e.g.: Login name, IM identifiers or Filename in a P2P network. The session will also illustrate the use of intelligent probes to capture data on the basis of particular behavior patterns or changes to those patterns. Anatoly Korsakov, VP Sales, Mera Systems |
