DPI ENGINE

DETAILED TRAFFIC VISIBILITY UP TO LAYER 7

Qosmos ixEngine® is an advanced, DPI-based, classification and metadata engine that recognizes over 3300 protocols, more than any other Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) library on the market.

Delivered as a Software Development Kit (SDK), it is composed of software libraries, modules and tools that are easily integrated into new or existing solutions. Developers benefit from market-leading IP flow parsing technology to bring detailed traffic visibility to network solutions up to Layer 7. Integration of Qosmos ixEngine as a software component removes the need to develop in-house protocol recognition capabilities, simplifying product development and accelerating delivery. Qosmos ixEngine can be used in all environments: physical, virtualized and in SDN architectures.

Optimized to analyze traffic in real time at 10, 40, 100 Gbps

DECODING ENGINE

Identification of protocols and applications behind each IP flow using a combination of advanced techniques including stateful inspection, behavioral and statistical analysis, heuristics, etc.
Extraction of metadata from protocols (e.g. volume, delay, jitter, etc.) and applications (e.g. name of file streamed on a website)

PROTOCOL PLUGIN BUNDLE AND UPDATES

Qosmos’ protocol plugin bundle includes thousands of protocol and application plugins to classify flows and extract metadata. To learn more about protocol and metadata expertise >>
Qosmos Labs continuously monitor protocols and applications updating protocol plugins to ensure they are always up-to-date

CUSTOM SIGNATURE MODULE

Allows users to develop custom protocol plugins that are integrated in the Qosmos ixEngine framework at run time

DEEP FILE INSPECTION MODULE

Identifies exchanges of suspicious files (i.e. incorrect / fake types or encrypted)
Performs basic checks for malware detection and Data Leak Prevention

RULE ENGINE MODULE

Executes customer-defined rules at run-time on output from classification and metadata extraction
APIs configure rules and load them into rule engine at production stage; rules are expressed in JSON format
