My view is with DPI, like virus scanning or spam filtering, you are buying the updates as much as the platform. If the signatures and rules aren’t kept up to date, it loses value. Any vendor that uses this feature to sell hardware and doesn’t charge a yearly fee may not understand the task.

Ok, so now that deep packet inspection has been announced I'd assume any NDAs have been lifted. Have any of you been using this? Any idea what type of latency is added? That pricing model is a whole lot different from any DPI tool that I have ever seen....
