It also focuses on WLAN security. Then, we go through application behavior issues including HTTP, mail, DNS, and other common protocols. This book finishes with a look at network forensics and how to locate security problems that might harm the network.This course provides you with highly practical content explaining Metasploit from the following books: 1) Wireshark Essentials 2) Network Analysis Using Wireshark Cookbook 3) Mastering Wireshark
