Transparent monitoring for your protection

In keeping with this spirit, here is a reminder of how we monitor (your) CERN activities. We monitor all network Traffic coming into and going out of CERN.

Our new analysis infrastructure will be able to cope with the automatic live analysis of about one terabyte of data every day. All this data is stored for one year.

You quoted from http://cds.cern.ch/journal/CERNBulletin/2016/05/News%20Artic...

This does seem more reasonable — probing devices on their network for running services, counting unusual numbers of connections, etc. Are they MITMing SSL traffic?

As far as I know, CERN isn't a "home ISP" to anyone, unlike many universities.
