You are hired by an organization to analyze packet captures from a wireless network. You are looking to assess if the captures pose a threat.

Analyze the packet captures provided by Wireshark (https://wiki.wireshark.org/SampleCapturesby doing the following:

Go to the Wireshark Sample Captures site and download the following:

wpa-Induction.pcap.gz Wi-Fi 802.11 WPA traffic

wpa-eap-tls.pcap.gz WiFi 802.11 WPA-EAP/Rekey sample

nb6-hotspot.pcap Someone connecting to SFR’s wireless community network

ciscowl.pcap.gz (libpcap) Cisco Wireless LAN Context Control Protocol (WLCCP) version 0x0

wap_google.pcap contains two WSP request-response dialogs

Note: Only download these sample captures. Other captures may set off your computer’s system defenses.

Use Wireshark to view and analyze the sample captures.

Create a 1- to 2-page table that ranks the packet captures from the highest to lowest threat. In your table, provide the following for each packet capture:

Description of the traffic

Description of the risks, if any, the traffic poses to the wireless network

Countermeasures to take to secure the network from any threat

Write a 2- to 3-page memo to management as a network security specialist, and ensure you do the following:

Explain how to distinguish hostile packet data from normal packet data.

Explain how to recognize any attack signatures in the packets you analyze.

Provide a rationale for ranking the packets as you did.

Format any citations according to APA guidelines.

Submit your assignment.
