Hello and welcome to this course.
My name is Sandy Maloo and I am a cybersecurity consultant and trainer.
I will be your instructor for this course.
Now, this course offers something for everyone and everything for beginners.
So whether you are completely new to Wireshark or already have some knowledge or experience, you have
landed at the right course.
Wireshark is an overwhelming tool for beginners, right?
Therefore, to understand Wireshark or any complex topic, the course structure plays an important role.
Therefore, I have designed this course in a way that your transition from knowing nothing to mastering
Wireshark will be effortless.
I say this with the utmost responsibility.
Now let me walk you through the course curriculum and what you will be learning in this course.
The course is divided into several sections for easy navigation.
In the first half of the course we will understand the basics of Wireshark, including its overwhelming
interface, core components and functions.
Then, moving forward, we will learn some tips and tricks that will significantly speed up and optimize
your workflow.
Next, we will move to the filters section.
Filters are the heart of the Wireshark.
We will learn both capture and display filters in detail.
Next we have nmap.
Nmap is an important tool for network security.
You will learn hands on nmap and how to analyze nmap attacks with Wireshark.
Wireshark itself is an overwhelming tool, but in the end it only captures and displays the packets
that two communicating Mitigating devices exchange in the background.
So to understand and analyze the packets, we need to learn the basics of how data is sent and received
over the internet.
The OSI model helps us understand how data is sent and delivered over the network.
We will learn both the OSI and TCP IP models in detail.
After learning both models, we will move to Packet Analysis section where you will learn about the
TCP protocol in detail and analyze TCP traffic.
TCP is a very important protocol.
It has been covered in detail along with the TCP protocol.
You will learn about the Internet Protocol and Ethernet frames as well.
It will strengthen your understanding of data communication.
After the packet analysis, we will transition into network security.
We have a dedicated section on how to capture and hack passwords, and in the next section we will learn
to analyze and detect and map scans with Wireshark.
There is also a dedicated section on wireless security, where you will learn about the 802.1 protocol,
different types of Wi-Fi attacks, how to detect Wi-Fi attacks with Wireshark.
And finally, we will wrap up the section with security tips how to protect your Wi-Fi network.
Finally, we will conclude this course with T shark.
T shark is basically a terminal based Wireshark.
It allows us to capture packets from the terminal or console.
It is equally important.
These are the main topics that I have mentioned.
There are plenty of other topics that have been covered in this extensive course.
Thank you very much guys.
