Stateful Inception is also called Dynamic Packet Filtering. It is a firewall technology that controls the condition of the active connection. Stateful inception has replaced static packet filtering. In the static packet filtering, we only check the packet headers indicating that an attacker can get the information through the firewall by indicating “replay” in the header.
On the other hand, stateful inception analyzes the packets down to the application layer. Recording the session information like IP addresses, port numbers, a dynamic packet filter implements a security posture that a static packet filter can.
