PacketSafari

Enterprise packet investigation · Large PCAPs

Find the needle in the packet haystack.

PacketSafari turns large, complex captures into a compact Evidence Map, then helps Agent investigate the connections, anomalies, and exact packets most likely to matter.

Spend less time manually filtering and more time validating evidence.

When you do not know the filter

Start with the incident. Not a perfect display filter.

Agent turns an operational question into selectors, evidence candidates, and packet-level follow-up. The analyst keeps control of what is accepted.

Users report occasional failures.
Something happened around this time.
This host may be compromised.
The application is sometimes slow.
Find anything unusual.

Three responsible starting points

Use the direction you have. Search wider when you do not.

The workflow changes with the question and capture, not a one-size-fits-all model prompt.

Known selector

Begin with a host, flow, protocol, timeframe, or display filter for a bounded fast start.

Fast answer

Unknown cause

Build the wider Evidence Map first when the capture is large, complex, or unfocused.

Triage then report

Evidence that survives the investigation

Analyze once. Reuse what matters.

The PacketSafari Core Engine uses bounded decoding, indexes, rules, correlations, and retrieval. Agent reasons over compact evidence, not the entire PCAP as model context.

  1. Capture accepted
  2. Preliminary evidence
  3. Candidate RCA
  4. Independent verification
  5. Defensible report

Less manual filtering

Fewer repeated broad scans

Reviewable analyst handoff

Exact evidence behind conclusions

Large-capture capacity and investigation time depend on deployment, capture structure, enabled processing, and the question being asked. PacketSafari does not claim a universal file-size or time-to-answer guarantee.

Bring the haystack. Leave with exact proof.
