Cyber-attacks such as Malware, data breaches, denial of service, phishing are proliferating. Network analytic tools such as wireshark and nmap which provide an intelligent about all the bits/frames/packets/data traversing network information are essentialfor Cyber Security. This paper studies the advantages the packet sniffing as well as the security scanner and the command promptfor the analysis of a network for security purposes. We demonstrate methods that can be taken to detect possible unwanted orforeign devices within the network, despite sniffing software’s not truly being designed for security measures.
