1. A system, comprising: a data type classifier configured to identity data instances in statistical data associated with system monitoring and classify each data instance into one of a plurality of data types, each data type being associated with a corresponding compression process and being indicative of one of a first order redundancy, a second order redundancy, or a third order redundancy; a first field encoder configured to remove first order redundancies in the data instances associated with a data type indicative of the first order redundancy; a second field encoder configured to remove second order redundancies in the data instances associated with a data type indicative of the second order redundancy; and a frame encoder configured to remove third order redundancies in the data instances associated with a data type indicative of the third order redundancy, wherein the corresponding compression process used by each of the first field encoder, the second field encoder, and the frame encoder is different and all compression is lossless; wherein the plurality of data types are based on the statistical data and comprise any of a constant data type, a predictable time varying type, an occasional occurrence type, a time varying type, and a unit change type; and wherein the system monitoring is performed by a distributed security system and the statistical data is from an external network from the distributed security system, wherein the distributed security system is configured to interface between a plurality of users of the external network and the Internet and to monitor data communications therein to form the statistical data.
