Is it permissible for businesses to use WIRESHARK? (i.e. is this within the EULA?)

With respect to installing and running Wireshark, the answer (from the license perspective) is "Yes".

Wireshark uses the "Gnu General Public License (V2)". A web search will turn up many sites with detailed explanations of the license.

Approaching this from the business side, make sure your organizations permit you "looking at packets".
