BitTally Description

Network traffic monitoring software with state-of-the-art protocol recognition engine

BitTally is network traffic monitoring software with state-of-the-art protocol recognition engine based on Deep Packet Inspection technology (DPI). Over 100 application protocols are currently recognized, including BitTorrent, eDonkey, FTP, HTTP, SMTP, POP3, SIP, Skype, and many more. Even encrypted BitTorrent, Skype, etc. connections are recognized.

BitTally tracks bandwidth usage by user, application protocol, domain, domain category, country.

BitTally can also detect suspicious activities, reset undesirable TCP connections, or even redirect HTTP sessions.

What it does:

* Collects detailed traffic statistics by user, network, application protocol (HTTP, BitTorrent, Skype,etc.), domain, domain category (Adult, Gambling, Media), country.
* Allows the administrator to set up triggers to detect suspicious activities in real time (e.g. to identify P2P or e-mail abusers).
* Resets unwanted TCP connections and redirects HTTP (criteria: user, application protocol, network, domain, domain category, country, time of day, day of week, traffic volume, the number of inbound/outbound connections, etc.)

Like sniffers, BitTally must see all network traffic. So it must be connected to a hub, mirror port of a switch, etc. In the simplest configuration BitTally may run on the single user's computer.
What makes BitTally different?
Stateful Traffic Analysis

BitTally keeps track of all active connections from beginning to end so every packet, byte, and bit can be tallied properly and attributed to a correct protocol, user, etc.
Deep Packet Inspection (DPI)

It means that application protocols are not recognized by port numbers or other shallow packet-level characteristics. This simply doesn't work with many protocols, neither does simple pattern recognition (e.g. BitTorrent may look like HTTP, Skype like HTTPS, etc.)

BitTally recognizes application protocols by:

* Protocol-specific signatures
* Analysis of other connections (e.g. FTP control connection carries information about future data connections)
* Heuristic analysis of behavioral patterns, and finally, if everything else fails,
* Port numbers

User-aware network statistics

Traffic statistics are collected for users, networks, countries, etc. rather than raw IP addresses. For it to work, you must tell BitTally how to map IP addresses to meaningful user IDs and network IDs. Explicit user mapping is optional; BitTally may be configured to use reverse DNS lookup or just raw IP addresses.
Client-server architecture

BitTally consists of two components: Monitor and Client.

* Monitor collects traffic statistics, detects suspicious activites, resets undesirable TCP connections, generates reports. It has no GUI interface and runs as Windows service.
* Client (coming soon) is a GUI application that controls Monitor. It may be installed on any computer (local or remote) and is used by the administrators to configure Monitor, generate traffic reports, watch real-time traffic information.
* In addition to the GUI client, any web browser may be used to control the monitor. In this case no setup whatsoever is required on client machines.

With BittTally Standard Edition you can easily create your own custom applications to import traffic data into a database of your own, periodically reconfigure Monitor's IP-to-user mapping using data obtained from your DHCP or RADIUS server, and so on.
