This paper proposes a new object model of data for the in-depth analysis of network traffic. In contrast to the model used by most modern network analyzers (for example, Wireshark and Snort), the proposed model supports data stream reassembling with subsequent parsing. The model also provides a convenient universal mechanism for binding parsers, thus making it possible to develop completely independent parsers. Moreover, the proposed model allows processing modified—compressed or encrypted—data. This model forms the basis of the infrastructure for the in-depth analysis of network traffic.
