Enterprise packet investigation · Financial services

When a critical service fails, prove where and why.

Investigate payment-path outages and malicious traffic from the same packet record. PacketSafari helps banking, payments, fintech, insurance, and market-infrastructure teams move from an alert or failed transaction to inspectable evidence.

One capture · shared operational truth

Security incident or traffic outage? Start with evidence.

PacketSafari complements live monitoring. It investigates captured traffic after an outage, alert, escalation, or control test and keeps the answer reviewable.

01

Payment and service outages

Separate packet loss, TLS resets, path policy, service wait, and receiver behavior before the incident becomes a vendor blame loop.

Explore network RCA
02

Malicious traffic and lateral movement

Combine Suricata-compatible rules, behavioral C2, tunnels, exact east-west findings, and configured offline threat intelligence.

Explore security analysis
03

Third-party and encrypted paths

Compare client, edge, proxy, VPN, load-balancer, API, and service evidence while keeping unsupported attribution explicit.

04

Incident reconstruction

Retain frames, filters, flows, timestamps, coverage, and uncertainty for review across network, security, vendor, and risk teams.

Simple value estimate

What could faster evidence be worth?

Use three planning assumptions. Count only incidents where packet investigation is part of the response and only hours you genuinely believe better evidence could remove.

Annual modeled valueIncidents × hours potentially saved × cost or exposure per hour
Hours potentially recovered180 / year
Modeled annual value€1,800,000

Illustrative planning estimate—not a PacketSafari guarantee or customer result. Validate time saved and business impact during an evaluation.

Critical systems and protocols

Follow the transaction across real service boundaries.

Protocol depth depends on the available packet fields, encryption, capture position, and deployment. Confirm representative workflows during evaluation.

Payments and transaction paths

Payment gateways · card authorization · instant payments · ATM and branch servicesISO 8583/ISO 20022 paths · HTTPS/TLS · DNS · TCP

Distinguish handshake, transport, intermediary, service-wait, and receiver failure before transactions or customer journeys remain degraded.

Market and treasury connectivity

Trading venues · market-data gateways · order routing · treasury and settlement linksFIX · TLS · TCP · multicast · DNS

Reconstruct sequence, latency, retransmission, disconnect, and path evidence across latency-sensitive service boundaries.

Identity and east-west services

Active Directory · privileged access · application tiers · VDI and remote administrationKerberos · LDAP · SMB · RDP · DNS

Correlate lateral movement, authentication, remote access, and suspicious internal paths with exact packet anchors.

Encrypted and third-party dependencies

WAF · VPN · load balancer · API gateway · cloud and outsourced processorsTLS · TCP · HTTP/2 · DNS · VPN tunnels

Show what the capture supports at each boundary while keeping encrypted payload limits and unresolved ownership explicit.

Resilience and control context

Make incident evidence useful to operations, risk, and audit.

DORA operational resilience

ICT incident records, root-cause follow-up, response and recovery, business-impact analysis, and testing create demand for reviewable incident evidence.

EU Regulation 2022/2554

PCI DSS 4.0.1

Logging, monitoring, intrusion detection, network testing, and forensic analysis need evidence from the relevant cardholder-data environment.

PCI SSC document library

Internal resilience and audit

Risk, incident, network, security, application, and third-party teams need one defensible chronology—not conflicting screenshots and informal conclusions.

Evaluate against your control set

PacketSafari supplies packet-investigation evidence; it is not a compliance product and does not certify adherence. Applicability and evidentiary requirements must be determined by the organization and its advisers.

Sensitive traffic stays governed

Evidence without flattening the PCAP into an AI prompt.

The Core Engine performs deterministic capture processing and evidence retrieval. Models investigate compact facts and hypotheses within the selected deployment boundary.

01

SaaS, dedicated, or on-premises deployment profiles

02

Customer-controlled packet storage, identity, model routing, and egress options

03

Preliminary direction kept distinct from Verification and the Final Report

04

Explicit complete, partial, unavailable, and failed evidence coverage

PacketSafari can support incident reconstruction, resilience testing, and evidence review. It does not by itself certify DORA, PCI DSS, or any other regulatory compliance outcome.
