We’ve seen some recent press stating that WikiLeaks plans to release documents from three Canadian companies named on the SpyFiles website, of which, Sandvine is one (there are many companies on the list, some involved in and some unrelated to the topic). We’re puzzled why we’re named on this list, and moreover, puzzled as to which documentation could be considered secret files. What Sandvine does is out in the open and is clearly explained on our website:

Sandvine’s network policy control solutions focus on protecting and improving the quality of experience on the Internet. Our award-winning network equipment and software helps DSL, FTTx, cable, fixed wireless and mobile operators better understand network traffic, manage network congestion, create new services and revenues, mitigate traffic that is malicious or undesirable to subscribers, deliver QoS-prioritized multimedia services and increase subscriber satisfaction.

Our Global Internet Phenomena Report is an example of the type of data that our network equipment enables ISPs to collect. Many of our customers and many in the industry, find these insights valuable, as they allow for proactive capacity planning of Internet networks, enabling fair use connectivity and a high quality experience for the end subscriber. Download it and read for yourself. Feel free to contact us directly with any comments or concerns, we would be more than happy to discuss.

We’ve long been fans of transparency and are public industry advocates for government proposals that seek open and equitable Internet access. It’s all there for you to read. No need to bring a bucket.
