Description: From the ISSA-KY Network Packet Analysis Workshop, this video introduces the basics of the OSI packet model, application packet model and common network protocols. Later videos will discuss specific protocols such as TCP, IP, UDP and HTTP. Later, packets will be captured into PCAPs which are analyzed with Wireshark and Network Miner.

We continue the series on network packet analysis by observing User Datagram Protocol (UDP) packets as they appear in Wireshark. The structure of the packet is described using the UDP packet structure diagram and some examples of real packets. UDP is a common network protocol used to transmit data for applications that are not sensitive to some packet loss.

The webpwnized YouTube channel is dedicated to information security, security testing and ethical hacking. There is an emphasis on web application security but many other topics are covers. Some of these include forensics, network security, security testing tools and security testing processes. The channel provides videos to encourage software developers and system administrators to perform security testing. Also, the channel educates the next generation of security testers and bug bounty hunters who want to respectfully, legally and ethically help system owners that allow security testing. .
