Assignment 13:
Packet Analysis
1.
Sure, Scott is one of your best friends at the company, but he’s always asking for computer help. No amount of training seems to work. Today he sent you a text message to complain that his computer hard drive light is always blinking on – even when he’s not touching the keyboard. With a promise of decent drinks after work, you remotely connected to his machine and started capturing traffic. Sure enough – loads of packets were flying around. Just then, Scott arrived in your office. Hmmm… Scott is here, but his computer seemed to have a lot of network activity going on. You stopped the trace to see what happened in the BACKGROUND on his system. challengewhatsup.pcapng
