Welcome!

Welcome to our course for Network Analysis! We will be teaching you how to effectively use Wireshark and TCPDump for recording network traffic, and analysing packet captures. To reinforce everything you’ve learned, we have created a number of PCAPs that you will be analysing with the tools covered in this course. For the final challenge, you will be conducting a security investigation into a network compromise, using a PCAP to uncover the malicious activity.
