Skill UI

A comprehensive guide for analyzing PCAP files captured during malware execution. It demonstrates advanced techniques using Wireshark, Zeek, Suricata, and Python (scapy) to identify Command and Control (C2) communications, data exfiltration channels, Domain Generation Algorithms (DGA), and periodic beaconing patterns. Essential for malware reverse engineering and network threat detection.

This skill simulates various network attack scenarios, including bandwidth throttling, traffic shaping, and network degradation, using tools like tc, iperf3, and Scapy. It is designed for authorized security assessments to test the resilience of applications, validate Quality-of-Service (QoS) policies, and assess the ability of network monitoring tools to detect sophisticated traffic manipulation attacks (e.g., Slowloris-style attacks).

This skill demonstrates how to craft and inject custom, malformed, or spoofed network packets using tools like Scapy and hping3. It is designed for authorized cybersecurity assessments to rigorously test firewall rules, Intrusion Detection/Prevention Systems (IDS/IPS) signatures, anti-spoofing controls, and overall network stack resilience against protocol anomalies and fragmentation attacks. Use only in controlled, authorized environments.
