A Survey on Encrypted Network Traffic Analysis Applications, Techniques, and Countermeasures

The adoption of network traffic encryption is continually growing. Popular applications use protocols to secure communications and protect the privacy users. In addition, a large portion malware spread through taking advantage hide its presence activity. Entering into era completely encrypted over Internet, we must rapidly start reviewing state-of-the-art in wide domain analysis inspection, conclude if traditional processing systems will be able seamlessly adapt upcoming full encryption. this survey, examine literature that deals with inspection after ascent communication channels. We notice research community has already started proposing solutions on how perform even when demonstrate review these works. present techniques methods works their limitations. Finally, countermeasures have been proposed order circumvent aim harm user privacy.
