Deep Packet Inspection (DPI): U.S. Government Market Forecast 2010-2015 | Market Research Media.

US-China cyber confrontation is nothing new but Chinese hacking attacks and the U.S. Administration’s new hardball policy shift with China (US arms sale to Taiwan and US-China currency spat) will likely add fuel to the fire of cyber war. Deep Packet Inspection is the only currently available technology capable to provide security of IP traffic at ever growing rates that has inherent traffic management capabilities. Recently massive growth in data processing power and new cyber threats have spurred the deployment of DPI technologies in the U.S. Government agencies. In 2011, we’ve seen a palpable shift from reactive approach to cyber security to proactive (Einstein – US-CERT programs) and attitude change of federal CIO’s with regard to Deep Packet Inspection (DPI).

Speaking here at the company's analyst's day, Genband CEO Charlie Vogt paid some special attention to the company's interest in penetrating the session border control (SBC) and deep packet inspection (DPI) markets. It's got its own SBC product, and is working with Procera Networks Inc. (Nasdaq: PKT) to tack on DPI. While everyone is chasing Acme Packet Inc. Acme Packet commands more than half of the SBC market and Genband is fourth, with just 5 percent, according to Infonetics Research Inc. data.

Ahead of day one of the London Conference on Cyberspace, hosted by the Foreign & Commonwealth Office, PwC calls on business and government leaders to take ultimate responsibility for cyber security and collaborate together more closely to address the pressing cyber threat.
William Beer, a director in PwC’s cyber and information security practice, said: “The cyber security industry is in freefall. Operating securely in the cyber environment is among the most urgent issues facing business and government leaders today. But many organisations have a long way to go if they are to combat the incredible resourcefulness and ability of the attackers. The criminals are nimble and quick on their feet, and this a fast-paced battle. Despite the growing threat, leaders continue to focus on exploiting the opportunities of cyber and are ignoring the risks.

I appreciate the opportunity to be here with you today to discuss the cyber threat, the challenges it presents, and some alternative ideas for mitigating it. The Cyber Threat Some of the most critical threats facing our nation today emanate from the cyber realm.
President Obama called the cyber threat one of the most serious economic and national security challenges we face as a nation. I believe the cyber threat is an existential one, meaning that a major cyber attack could potentially wipe out whole companies. While it may sound alarmist, the threat is incredibly real, and intrusions into corporate networks, personal computers, and government systems are occurring every single day by the thousands. We see three primary actors in the cyber world: foreign intelligence services, terrorist groups, and organized crime enterprises. These cases illustrate how the offense far outpaces the defense in the cyber realm.
