MULTI-LEVEL DATA CHANNEL AND INSPECTION ARCHITECTURE INCLUDING SECURITY-LEVEL-BASED FILTERS FOR DIVERTING NETWORK TRAFFIC

Abstract:

Deep packet inspection of data in a multi-spoke data tunnel inspection architecture is provided. Inspection may include using a data review tunnel module to receive a first portion of a data stream, encrypted with a first encryption scheme, in a first data conduit. The method may also include receiving a second portion of the data stream, encrypted with a second encryption scheme, in the second data conduit. The method may also include decrypting and reconstructing a complete data stream. The complete data stream may be derived from the decrypted and reconstructed first data stream and the decrypted and reconstructed second data stream. The method may then analyze and review the flow of the complete data stream to determine whether the flow of the data stream is associated with a pre-determined likelihood of intrusion, and then prepare a data report based on the analysis and review.
