Course Description	New to Wireshark? Feeling a little rusty? Want to pick up some new skills prior to SharkFest? In this hands-on pre-conference course, we will cover concepts of the Wireshark Analyzer and core network protocols which will enable attendees to improve their skills in capturing and interpreting network traffic. Rather than capturing large amounts of data and being overwhelmed by the details, attendees will learn how to practically use Wireshark to attack network problems and hone in on the packets that matter. The concepts in this course will prepare beginners to get the most out of the SharkFest sessions that will follow during the conference, as well as refresh the skills of seasoned analysts.
Course Outline Day 1	Troubleshooting with the Wireshark Analyzer • How and where to capture packets • How to avoid getting overwhelmed • TAP vs SPAN vs Direct Capture • Setting up Wireshark • Configuring Profiles and Coloring Rules • Using Custom Columns • Filtering for the traffic that matters • Visualizing traffic using I/O Graphs • Analyzing core network protocols such as ARP, IP, UDP, DNS, DHCP • Creating Filter Expressions
Day 2	Core Protocol Fundamentals using Wireshark TCP and UDP • The Handshake • TCP Options • How TCP Windows work and Window Scaling • SACK • TCP Congestion Algorithms • TCP Stream Graphs • Building Filters for Common TCP Issues • How Retransmissions work
Who Should Attend:	Network technicians, network engineers, and application developers who are at the beginning stages of packet analysis, or who have some comfort in the field but would like to pick up new tips and protocol training.

Course Description	The applications of today depend more and more on secure communication channels. For most internet applications the TLS protocol (still mostly referred to as SSL) is providing the secure channel to communicate over. To be able to troubleshoot problems with Applications that use (mutual) TLS, one must understand how TLS sessions are set up, how certificates and certificate authorities come into play and how you can look inside the encrypted traffic to analyse the (cleartext) application data. In this session you will gain a better understanding of the operation of the TLS protocol and more importantly, you will learn how to troubleshoot TLS based communications when things don't work as expected.
Course Outline	TLS fundamentals • Why TLS (and what happened to SSL)? • Cryptology 101 • Understanding The TLS protocol • The TLSv1.2 handshake • The TLSv1.3 handshake • Troubleshooting TLS handshakes • LAB exercises TLS continued • Understanding mutual TLS (Authentication based on TLS client certificates) • Understanding TLS session resumption • Analysing encrypted application data (without decrypting it) • Setting up a configuration profile for TLS analysis • LAB exercises Decrypting TLS traffic • Decryption based on the private key of the server • When will this work and when won't it work • Decryption based on the TLS session keys • When will this work and when won't it work • how to get TLS session keys • LAB exercises
Who Should Attend:	Network technicians, network engineers, cybersecurity analysts, security engineers and application developers who are at the beginning to intermediate stages of packet analysis. The course will be focused on core concepts around Wireshark, helping attendees become more efficient and confident analyzing trace files.
