Abstract

Till date there are no systems which promise to efficiently store and retrieve high volume network traffic. Like Time Machine, this efficiently records and retrieves high volume network traffic. The bottleneck of such systems has been to capture packets at such a high speed without dropping and to write a large amount of data to a disk quicklt and sufficiently, without impact on the integrity of the captured data (Ref. Cooke.E., Myrick.A., Rusek.D., & Jahanian.F(2006)). Certain hardware and software parts of the operating system (like drivers, input/output interfaces) cannot cope with such a high volume of data from a network, which may cause loss of data. Based on such experiences the authors have come up with a redesigned implementation of the system which have specialized capture hardware with its own Application Programming Interface for overcoming loss of data and improving efficiency in recording mechanisms.
