About DPI Consortium

Keeping DPI technology available to all

The Deep Packet Inspection (“DPI”) Consortium originated as a 501(c)(6) nonprofit organization in 2019. In 2025, the DPI Consortium dissolved its nonprofit status and continues to operate today as an independent project. The DPI Consortium is committed to:

Provide freely available educational resources regarding the history of Deep Packet Inspection technology and development to:
- make available hard-to-find historical information relevant to patent validity challenges
- encourage innovation in the area of DPI
- deter PAE activity
- improve patent quality
Encourage interested parties to add to the prior art repository
