Colab Notebooks
The basics
You may want to read How Colab Notebooks Work. Two useful tricks:
- If you do not understand what a certain Linux/Windows command does, ChatGPT is usually very helpful (see this example).
- It may be useful, for readability, to remove the output of previous command executions: "
Edit-->Clear all outputs".
List of notebooks
1 - Introduction
2 - DNS
- Playing with DIG - Client. This notebook shows the usage of Linux commands for emulating the DNS traffic generated by an endpoint
- Understanding DNS traffic This notebook analyzes real DNS traffic with the Python Scapy library.
3 - Web
4 - Email
5 - IP
6 - Network Security
The notebooks are all based on the openssl command. This command is very powerful and, as such, quite complex (have a look at the man page, if you want).
You may ask a detailed explanation of each command to ChatGPT, as in this example.
Follow order and "timing" suggested in the lectures (i.e., look at any given notebook not earlier than suggested in the slides).
