0x01 · Kestrel Security Stack 2 shipping 1 in development

Packet capture analysis for iPhone and iPad.

Native tools for opening and analyzing PCAP and PCAPNG captures away from a workstation. Lite and Sight ship today. Pro is in development. Analysis is processed on-device. No Tracivex account, no cloud-analysis service, no analytics, and no third-party runtime dependencies.

0x10 · ANALYSIS

A mobile network-analysis workspace.

Kestrel turns pre-captured network traffic into packets, conversations, hosts, DNS activity, TCP streams, timelines, and reports without sending the capture to a Tracivex service.

Lead with what ships.

Lite and Sight are the current App Store products. They share the shipping Kestrel analysis core; Sight removes Lite’s packet cap and adds the professional workflow features.

I. ● SHIPPING
FREE · iPHONE · iPAD

Kestrel Lite

Field triage and learning with the first 50,000 packets of a capture. Dashboard, packets, flows, hosts, DNS, streams, timeline, and audit logging are included.

Current Lite/Sight large-capture behavior and hashing limitations are documented on the Kestrel and support pages rather than hidden behind a generic “unlimited” claim.

Next in the stack.

Development work is shown separately from shipping software so the roadmap never reads like a release lineup.

III.

Kestrel Pro

Advanced detection, sensitive-data scanning, file carving, and tamper-evident session reporting. The development branch also carries newer core revisions for flow identity, reconstruction, link-layer handling, and evidence processing.
