Which categories of traffic are typically not decrypted?

Traffic related to financial services and health is typically not decrypted due to stringent regulations and privacy concerns. Financial services involve sensitive information such as banking details, credit card numbers, and transaction records, which are protected under various laws like the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard). Similarly, health-related information is safeguarded by regulations such as HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) in the United States, which mandates the protection of personal health information.

Decryption of this data could expose individuals to identity theft and fraud, as well as violate legal protections designed to keep such information confidential. Therefore, organizations handling this type of traffic generally opt to implement strong encryption protocols to maintain compliance and protect user privacy, leading to limited or no decryption of these data categories.

Other options may involve less regulatory scrutiny, thus allowing for more flexibility in traffic management practices, potentially making them more amenable to decryption. However, the critical nature of security and privacy in financial and health services ensures they remain protected from decryption efforts.
