description <i>Kevin P. Dyer presents:</i><br><b>P0wning DPI with Format-Transforming Encryption </b> <br> Deep packet inspection (DPI) technologies provide much-needed visibility and control of network traffic using port- independent protocol identification (PIPI), where a network flow is labeled with its application-layer protocol based on packet contents. In many cases PIPI can be used for good. As one example, it allows network administrators to elevate priority of time-sensitive (e.g., VoIP) data streams. In other cases PIPI can be used for harm, nation-states employ PIPI to block censorship circumvention tools such as Tor. There are many ways to perform PIPI, however, at the core of nearly all modern PIPI systems are regular expressions --- an expressive tool to compactly specify sets of strings. In this talk, Kevin reviews the state-of-the-art research on the capabilities of state-level DPI, then presents a novel cryptographic primitive called format-transforming encryption (FTE.) An FTE scheme, intuitively, extends conventional symmetric encryption with the ability to transform the ciphertext into a user-defined format using regular expressions. An FTE-based record layer will be presented that can encrypt arbitrary TCP traffic and coerce modern DPI systems into misclassifying any data stream as a target protocol (e.g., HTTP, SMB, RSTP, etc.) of the user's choosing. What's more, this work is not only theoretical in nature --- an open-source FTE prototype is publicly available and has had success in subverting modern DPI systems, including the Great Firewall of China. <hr><b>Kevin P.

description nil Please note that this month's meeting is at Urban Airship's new location in the Vestas building. Two years ago, architect Miloš Jovanović shut down his building company so he could try something new. Despite his lack of technical experience, he went into the mobile software business. Miloš will tell us about what he has learned on his journey as a non-techical founder, including: * networking in an unfamiliar field * identifying your technical needs * finding the right people to work on your project * and the advantages of being non-technical About Miloš Miloš is an award-winning architectural designer and founder/CEO of SpaceView. He did the world's first LEED Platinum retrofit project. He designed and built 'The Shift House', which was featured in DWELL Magazine and received the Super Energy house award. He was formerly with internationally recognized GBC Architects and owner of Root Build Design and Root Energy Solutions, specializing in high-performance, energy efficient homes recognized in the industry for visual impact and styling.

description nil <i>Kevin P. Dyer presents:</i><br><b>P0wning DPI with Format-Transforming Encryption </b> <br> Deep packet inspection (DPI) technologies provide much-needed visibility and control of network traffic using port- independent protocol identification (PIPI), where a network flow is labeled with its application-layer protocol based on packet contents. In many cases PIPI can be used for good. As one example, it allows network administrators to elevate priority of time-sensitive (e.g., VoIP) data streams. In other cases PIPI can be used for harm, nation-states employ PIPI to block censorship circumvention tools such as Tor. There are many ways to perform PIPI, however, at the core of nearly all modern PIPI systems are regular expressions --- an expressive tool to compactly specify sets of strings. In this talk, Kevin reviews the state-of-the-art research on the capabilities of state-level DPI, then presents a novel cryptographic primitive called format-transforming encryption (FTE.) An FTE scheme, intuitively, extends conventional symmetric encryption with the ability to transform the ciphertext into a user-defined format using regular expressions. An FTE-based record layer will be presented that can encrypt arbitrary TCP traffic and coerce modern DPI systems into misclassifying any data stream as a target protocol (e.g., HTTP, SMB, RSTP, etc.) of the user's choosing. What's more, this work is not only theoretical in nature --- an open-source FTE prototype is publicly available and has had success in subverting modern DPI systems, including the Great Firewall of China. <hr><b>Kevin P.
