If we take as a basis the operators and ISPs interfering network service platforms and equipment capable of analyzing all traffic to Internet subscribers, this fact has led to all kinds of disputes such as who or what agency regulates that interfered and analyzed data are not made public, maintain its integrity and are not marketed in any way, respecting the privacy of users. This article provides an assessment of the legal proceedings and legal framework whose scope is the protection of data and information, with the use of deep packet inspection or DPI, by operators and service providers in Colombia. Subsequent analyzes the composition of the Internet and the responsible authorities of regulating the services offered in the network. Finally a number of suggestions and recommendations to the actors that directly affect the deep packet inspection will be concluded by referencing real cases, laws and models governing other countries.
