Course Overview
Hi everyone. My name is Chris Greer, and welcome to my course, Identify Common Cyber Network Attacks with Wireshark. I’m a network analyst and a Wireshark instructor at Packet Pioneer, and I’m excited to show you how all IT professionals can use this tool to quickly spot cyberattacks and network traffic. After all, even with our IDS systems in place, cybersecurity attacks have become so common that threat hunting with Wireshark is no longer an optional skill for IT pros. Engineers need to quickly spot enumeration scans, malware behavior, data exfiltration efforts, and other suspect traffic with Wireshark, especially during incident response. But before we can do that, we first need to know how these common attack methods work and how to identify them at the packet level. So join me, and you’ll get hands-on experience with pcap examples of common threats and learn how to spot them in Wireshark. In this course, you’ll learn how to filter for network scans and OS fingerprinting, how to spot traffic exfiltration in the packets, you’ll learn the top 10 attack patterns to search for, and how to identify common indicators of compromise in malware behavior. By the end of this course, you’ll have the skills necessary to quickly spot cyber network attacks with Wireshark. Before beginning the course, you should have already viewed the first course in this path, Wireshark Configuration for Cybersecurity Analysis. I hope that you’ll join me on this journey to learn how to threat hunt with Wireshark, here at Pluralsight.
