What happened and what to do
On August 30, 2024, a publication presented GoodbyeDPI, a Windows utility, and the ByeDPIAndroid and zapret repositories as open-source tools capable of bypassing deep packet inspection. It notes that engineers working on network filtering and censorship circumvention can assess them.
For a company, an assessment can start by mapping where traffic inspection is applied and testing, in a controlled environment, whether these tools affect existing controls. A project could establish usage rules, monitor signs of circumvention, and define alert-investigation procedures, without assuming that a bypass tool is the right answer for the corporate network.
How the consultancy can help
Wendelmaques can diagnose exposure in network controls, define the scope of controlled tests, and implement monitoring and operational procedures suited to the company’s environment.
