Wireshark
Wireshark is a tool used for capturing and analyzing network traffic. It enables the examination and analysis of network traffic in real-time or from saved PCAP files.
Wireshark is able to dissect various network protocols and display detailed information about each network packet. Security experts can use it to detect suspicious or malicious network traffic, such as the spread of malware, attacks, or phishing. It is often needed in CTF competitions as well.
Especially Wireshark is suitable for learning network protocols. You can, for example, start Wireshark, open a browser, go to Hakatemian's page, and then see the whole transaction in Wireshark.
In this course, we will learn the basics of Wireshark, such as capturing traffic, using the search field, and understanding the statistics in the Wireshark program.
