  6. 🦈 Wireshark Useful Filters – Quick Guide for Network Pros 🌐

    Wireshark is the go-to tool for packet analysis 📡. With the right filters, you can cut through the noise and find exactly what matters 🔎. Here are some of the most useful ones every cybersecurity pro 🛡️ and network engineer ⚙️ should know:

    ✨ Host & IP Filters
    ip.addr == 192.168.1.10 → traffic from/to one host 🖥️
    ip.src == 10.0.0.5 → packets from a source 📤
    ip.dst == 8.8.8.8 → packets to a destination 📥

    ✨ Protocol Filters
    http → all HTTP traffic 🌍
    dns → DNS lookups & responses 🔤
    tcp / udp → filter transport layer 📡

    ✨ Port Filters
    tcp.port == 443 → HTTPS 🔒
    udp.port == 53 → DNS 📡
    tcp.port == 22 → SSH 🔑

    ✨ Conversation Tracking
    tcp.stream eq 5 → follow a single TCP session 🔄
    http.request → show only client requests 📤
    http.response → show only server responses 📥

    ✨ Error & Suspicious Activity
    tcp.flags.reset == 1 → connection resets ⚠️
    icmp → ping/echo packets 🛰️
    ssl.handshake → TLS handshakes 🔐

    ⚠️ Disclaimer:
    For educational & authorized use only. Always analyze traffic in labs or systems you manage. 🚫🔒

  35. We get the overwhelming sense #Bitcoin is going to become more popular in the next year.

    The moment adoption begins to really take off we envisage a #falseFlag #virusAttack on computers globally that will be blamed on supposed bitcoin users.

    The attack a few years ago was only a test run. We think the next one will be bigger and #engineerConsent for an actual #war on #bitcoinMining operations and known node locations (using #packetAnalysis even against #Tor users)

    We need to be prepared.
