Definitive network forensics for engineers

Description

This course studies network forensics-monitoring and
analysis of network traffic for information gathering,
intrusion detection and legal evidence. We focus on the
technical aspects of network forensics rather than other
skills such as incident response procedures etc.. Hands
on sessions follow all the major sections.
