BOSTON, MA--(Marketwire - September 3, 2009) - ipoque, the leading European vendor of Internet
traffic management solutions, today published a new white paper,
contributing to one of the most controversially discussed topics in the
Internet community: Deep Packet Inspection.
The document aims to clarify the technological background and cover major
points surrounding the hotly debated issues behind Deep Packet Inspection
(DPI). Starting with a definition of DPI, the white paper explores the DPI
application and dispells some of the misconceptions surrounding "net
neutrality" and privacy concerns. The potential impact of DPI
applications on society is also considered.
"We believe it is a great opportunity for us to continue building awareness
of DPI. As a vendor of DPI appliances, we want readers to understand this
technology. Our purpose is to expell some of the myths and
misunderstandings about this technology -- for example, that DPI reads the
content of all network packets," says Klaus Mochalski, CEO of ipoque and
co-author of the white paper.
Hendrik Schulze, CTO of ipoque and
co-author of the white paper, adds: "We take the position to argue that DPI
as such, is a neutral -- neither good nor bad -- technology. It rather
depends on the application that utilizes DPI, how it will affect the
Internet and our society."

White Paper Launch at Broadband World Forum Europe
Klaus Mochalski will present the DPI white paper at the Broadband World
Forum in Paris from 7-9 September 2009 in the workshop, "Deep Packet
Inspection: Technology, Promise & Controversy: What You Need to Know."
