Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) is important for the future of SCADA / ICS security - and in this article I explain why.

I have talked repeatedly about something called Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) and why it is so important for SCADA / ICS security (for example, see Air Gaps Won’t Stop Stuxnet’s Children). The trouble is, I have never described what DPI actually is. So in today’s blog I will back up and explain what DPI firewall technology is all about.
