Assignment 01: Introduction to Wireshark
Introduction to Wireshark
This
lesson familiarizes the student with Wireshark, a network protocol
analyzer. This tool allows students to capture and analyze network
traffic in real-time, as well as opening saved network packet capture
data for analysis after-the-fact. Most network incident response
involves analyzing saved network traffic to determine whether, when, and
how a specific device on the network might have been compromised.
Use
the Virginia Cyber Range VM running Wireshark to complete the
assignment (you can also use your own personal machine with Wireshark
installed on it)

Submission:
For your report, provide screen captures of your work using Microsoft Word.
Make
sure your captures include the following: time, day, month, year stamp
in the lower right corner of your screen (Mac users may have timestamps
at top-right)
At the top of each screen capture, put a capture title. Do NOT put the title at the bottom of the screen capture.

Assignment 02: Introduction to Wireshark
Introduction to Wireshark
In
this lesson, the student will be introduced to Wireshark, a very useful
tool that covers a very important network forensics concept – reading
and understanding networking traffic. Wireshark (software known as a
packet analyzer) allows you to view pieces of data (called packets) in
real-time as they go in and out of a system and can be saved as packet
capture (pcap or cap) files. In this exercise, the student will be
analyzing packet capture files as well as capturing live network traffic
in real-time.
