Efficient use of a network protocol analyzer in cyber threats
In an increasingly technology-driven world, cybersecurity stands as the cornerstone of digital resilience. In this programme, we will explore the full spectrum of cybersecurity, from prevention to response, while gaining both immediate, hands-on skills and a foresight for the future of cybersecurity. This programme brings together academic researchers and industrial experts, and thus provides a blend of lectures and use cases and practical testimonials.

Many companies rely on a Security Information and Event Management system (SIEM) to consolidate data from various applications and equipment, allowing them to maintain an overview of their security landscape. To investigate alerts generated by their SIEM system more thoroughly, they turn to a Network Protocol Analyzer (NPA). An NPA captures, analyzes, and visualizes network traffic and can have a broad range of applications.However, the procedures and configurations of NPAs vary according to the specific issue at hand (cybersecurity, troubleshooting, etc.), which often leads to incorrect or inefficient usage in practice. During this workshop, we will build the knowledge and skills necessary to use Network Protocol Analyzers correctly and efficiently, particularly in the context of cybersecurity threats. We will work with real-life scenarios and gain practical insights into the underlying workings of NPAs. The NPA that we will delve deeper into during the workshop is the open-source NPA, Wireshark.
