ABSTRACT

This chapter is based on a detailed examination of packet analysis and penetration testing. Leading from the low-level approach of the previous chapter, further examples of packet sniffing are given using Python before leading into utilizing Wireshark. A fully comprehensive look is given to installing, running and setting up Wireshark on Ubuntu Linux. Wireshark setup and configuration are reviewed along with basic use before an in-depth look is given to the analysis. Finally, a malware analysis example is given of Trickbot.
