Course Syllabus

What you will learn

  • Analyze real network captures (pcap) and reconstruct the full attack chain
  • Identify reconnaissance, exploitation, lateral movement, and C2 in network traffic
  • Write basic Suricata rules and read Zeek logs (conn, dns, http, ssl) to detect known IOCs
  • Use professional tools: Wireshark, tcpdump, Nmap, Suricata, Zeek
  • Apply basic network hardening (segmentation, ACLs, least privilege) and write an incident report

Hands-on Lab

Receive a pcap capture from a real network incident (reconnaissance + exploitation) and identify the attacker, compromised systems, and attack chain using Wireshark, Zeek, and Suricata. Flags validate each finding automatically.
