Network forensics is the science of digital communication evidence collection and analysis for the purpose of identifying the method of network attack and residual effects. The ultimate goal is to protect the corporate network from future attacks and locate other systems that may have been affected or are likely targets. In this session, Laura Chappell, Sr. Protocol/Security Analyst for the Protocol Analysis Institute and Founder of Wireshark University, examines and demonstrates the following network forensics tasks: Wireshark forensic features, capturing traffic to/from suspect systems (placement), comparative analysis techniques and dealing with flood attacks (configuration options).
