Starting with nDPI 4.10, we have introduced a new feature called First Packet Classification (FPC). Goal of this technique is to address one problem of DPI that detects a protocol only when traffic has been dissected. This means that for TLS you need a few packets (usually between 5 and 10) for protocol dissection, as […]

ntop tools range from packet capture, traffic analysis and processing, and sometimes it is not easy to keep up on product updates as well master all the tools. This has been the driving force for organising ntop professional training. This is to announce that in October we have scheduled the next ntop Professional Training session. […]

ntop users who have enabled ClickHouse, know that they can search/aggregate/export historical flows and create customized reports. However, in the past months some of our users were uncomfortable of this approach as they preferred to seamlessly analyze historical as live data with the full power of ntopng. In the latest ntopng version we have added […]

In mid August we have refreshed most ntop tools, that include new features, enhancements and fixes. This webinar will walk through the major release changes and show what you should expect from this new release. Finally we will present developments plans so you can comment and provide feedback. Here you can find the presentation slides, […]

We’re happy to announce ntopng 6.2, a 10 months long development cycle. We have changed a few things in the UI and under the hood. Many pages as the flow page have been rewritten from scratch for responsiveness and usability Mitre Att&ck has been integrated in alerts, flow risks and  dashboards.As you can see we […]

This is to announce that Cento 2.0 is out! This new major release introduces many new great features. First of all it adds support for offloading flows to Napatech SmartNICs featuring Flow Manager. This new feature has been presented at IEEE HPSR (IEEE International Conference on High Performance Switching and Routing) and demonstrated to provide […]

This is to announce the release of nProbe 10.6 that includes many changes in a couple of selected areas: Mobile traffic analysis (GTPv1 and GTPv2) and GTP-C/GTP-U correlation has been rewritten to support complexity of modern mobile networks.  nProbe is now more friendly when talking ZMQ/Kafka (hence with ntopng) as it can report various statistics […]

This is to announce a new PF_RING release 8.8.0! This release adds generic support for flow table offload, which is currently supported on Napatech adapters with Flow Manager enabled. This new technology has been successfully used to accelerate nProbe Cento when running with DPI enabled on multi 100 Gbit traffic (both passive and inline) and […]

This is to announce the release of nDPI 4.10. This release adds many improvements and new detected protocols. For this reason future releases will be scheduled more often on a 4 or 6 months (hard) basis in order to provide you constant updates on a predictable timeframe, Beside adding many dissectors, this release paves the […]

Recently we have compared the use of nDPI in a realtime application (ntopng) and a near-realtime (nProbe). We have captured a short pcap with some mixed traffic and analysed it with both applications. The expectation was to find comparable results between the two applications, but this happened only partially. This blog posts explains the main […]
