Abstract

A hierarchical data structure of digested payload information (e.g., information within a payload, or information spanning two or more payloads) allows a payload excerpt to be attributed to earlier network flow information. These compact data structures permit data storage reduction, while permitting efficient query processing with a low level of false positives. One example of such a compact data structure is a hierarchical Bloom filter. Different layers of the hierarchy may correspond to different block sizes.
