A municipal capture file is huge. What analysis approach best focuses work on one target BSS?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Giant PCAPs need filters, not coin-flip deletions. Lock analysis to the target BSSID and the EAP/handshake frames that matter.
Full Explanation
Protocol analyzers such as Wireshark and tshark let assessors filter large captures down to a BSS of interest and to frame classes like EAPOL/EAP that support wireless analysis. Random truncation, discarding frame semantics for crude averages, or naïve text searches for passwords are unreliable and can destroy evidence fidelity.
