Abstract

A method and an apparatus for monitoring encrypted traffic, performed by at least one processor. The method includes generating a transport summary of a media stream at a streaming source or a streaming destination using a plurality of transport layer metrics, wherein the media stream is encrypted, and wherein the transport layer metrics comprise path characteristics derived from duplicated QUIC packets in the media stream at the streaming source or a streaming destination, transferring the transport summary to a network monitor function, analyzing the transport summary and correlating it with transport summaries collected from other sources and other destinations. The transport summary may include information on duplicate QUIC packets in the media stream.
