Hello all! I am a High School computer science teacher, and I am currently teaching a "Intro to Cyber Security" course. It's mainly a survey course, and forces on everything from passwords, to ethical hacking, to pen testing, to network analysis. I want my students to have a beginner's understanding of Wireshark. There are plenty of Youtube tutorials that show how to use the software, but I want my students to move through some simulated labs, and those are hard to make. I have done my best looking up what's online, but most of the time I will find PDFs of college teacher's assignments referencing .pcap files that are elsewhere. Does anyone on here have any good Wireshark labs that they have ever worked through? Are there any good sites that have sort of "lab" exercises where you download a .pcap or .dmp file? Do you have any oldl lessons or labs from classes you have taken? It would mean a ton to both me and my class! Best, Tobin asked 15 May '16, 21:55  TobinShields |

In can recommend the Malware-Traffic-Analysis website. There are a lot of training exercises with step-through solutions. answered 16 May '16, 00:56  Jasper ♦♦ |
I know the book Wireshark Network Security contains some documented examples, referencing PCAP hives. This could be a starting point to set something up. Full disclosure: I've been involved in reviewing this book. answered 15 May '16, 22:55  Jaap ♦ |
Wow--this is EXACTLY what I was hoping to find. In fact, this is an utter gold mine for both my own personal development, and something that I could run through with my student. I havn't run through these yet, but this is incredibly helpful. Bookmarking now...
Thanks a ton!
