Overview of this book

Network forensics is a subset of digital forensics that deals with network attacks and their investigation. In the era of network attacks and malware threat, it’s now more important than ever to have skills to investigate network attacks and vulnerabilities. Hands-On Network Forensics starts with the core concepts within network forensics, including coding, networking, forensics tools, and methodologies for forensic investigations. You’ll then explore the tools used for network forensics, followed by understanding how to apply those tools to a PCAP file and write the accompanying report. In addition to this, you will understand how statistical flow analysis, network enumeration, tunneling and encryption, and malware detection can be used to investigate your network. Towards the end of this book, you will discover how network correlation works and how to bring all the information from different types of network devices together. By the end of this book, you will have gained hands-on experience of performing forensics analysis tasks.

Technical Concepts and Acquiring Evidence

In the previous chapter, we learned about the various types of evidence sources. In this chapter, we will look at those sources in detail. We will familiarize ourselves with the basics of different types of log formats and look at the various technical key concepts required to conduct a network forensics exercise successfully.

We will cover the following topics in this chapter:

  • Inter-networking refresher
  • Exposure to various types of logs
  • Case studies on logs and packet structures

So, let's get started with the basics of inter-networking and understand how communications take place with respect to the OSI networking model.
