i have just finished two days of intensive training on a content filtering system that uses layer seven deep packet inspection technology to do content filtering, traffic shaping and firewalling.

it is scary just what we could see on the network, even down to the applications that where listening on what ports (but it did need a lightwieght agent on the pc to do that bit)

if phorm can do half of what this kit could do god help us
