Additional information

<29>The rigor of this paper is identified with the range of experiments on real-life data sets, which range from a 512 byte segment size to 16KB, along with comparing neural network training methods. It is one of the first papers which has applied methods of identify the difference between encrypted and compressed files, using fragments which are not at the start or end of the files, with well defined test data (GovDoc) which supports repeatable experiments. The success rate of 91% for encrypted fragments and 82% for compressed fragments are better than any other research team have achieved.
