A system for analyzing traffic without decrypting it. This method is simply called 'machine learning.' It turns out that if a very large volume of varied traffic is fed into a special classifier, the system can detect the actions of malicious code within encrypted traffic with a very high degree of probability. Network threats have changed and become 'smarter.' Recently, the very concept of attack and defense has evolved.
