The goals of the project, in the order of importance, are as 1.6 +follows: 1.7 + 1.8 + 1. Completeness of coverage; LibHTP must be able to parse virtually all 1.9 + traffic that is found in practice. 1.10 + 1.11 + 2. Permissive parsing; LibHTP must never fail to parse a stream that would 1.12 + be parsed by some other web server. 1.13 + 1.14 + 3. Awareness of evasion techniques; LibHTP must be able to detect and 1.15 + effectively deal with various evasion techniques, producing, where 1.16 + practical, identical or practically identical results as the web 1.17 + server processing the same traffic stream. 1.18 + 1.19 + 4. Performance; The performance must be adequate for the desired tasks. 1.20 + Completeness and security are often detrimental to performance. Our 1.21 + idea of handling the conflicting requirements is to put the library 1.22 + user in control, allowing him to choose the most desired library 1.23 + characteristic.
