Abstract
With the development of network technologies, the proportion of encrypted traffic in cyberspace is increasing. This phenomenon directly leads to the increasingly challenging management and control of network traffic. The research on encrypted traffic analysis and monitoring at this stage has become an important direction. Based on game theory, this paper proposes a countermeasure model in the detection of encrypted traffic and expounds the key elements of the model. Finally, we will present a detailed analysis of the pay and benefits between the two sides of the game.
