CIS 552 Week 3 Discussion WIRESHARK

Your labs this week focus on capturing network data by using tools such as TCPdump, Wireshark and NetWitness Investigator. The ability to analyze network data can be useful in determining possible network vulnerabilities.  

• In your labs, you performed a network capture using TCPdump and Wireshark. Compare and contrast these tools. In a few sentences, describe a scenario when you might find a use for each of these tools. Is one tool more efficient than the other in this industry? Using the Internet, recommend a website or video that provides a tutorial on how to best use one of these tools.

After reading a few of your classmate's postings, reply to the ones from which you learned something new, or to which you have something to add. Remember to get in early and post often.   

Additional post option: Outline the steps and equipment needed to capture wireless network traffic.
