Network protocols for security: DNS course. In this course, you will learn how to generate network traffic to analyze the performance of DNS queries and responses. After completing the course, you will have a basic understanding of how to find anomalies in DNS. The ability to understand network protocols is an important tacit skill for success in cybersecurity. In this Network Security Protocols: DNS course, you will learn how to analyze DNS network traffic.
First, you’ll study a typical DNS query to understand how queries and responses work. Next, you’ll modify the local hosts file to see one way to abuse DNS. Finally, you’ll analyze the command and control conversation to gain greater insight into malicious DNS conversations. By completing this course, you will gain the DNS knowledge and skills needed to detect anomalies and malicious activity in network traffic.
What you will learn:
- How DNS queries and responses work
- How to abuse DNS by changing the hosts file
- How to Analyze DNS Command and Control Conversations
- How to Find Anomalies and Malicious Activity in DNS Traffic
This course is suitable for people who:
- Interested in learning cybersecurity
- They have basic knowledge about networks.
- Want to have a deeper understanding of DNS
