Network Recon Basics

Safe recon and traffic analysis fundamentals in a lab environment.

This project covers basic recon concepts and how to interpret what you see. The point is to understand the environment first: hosts, services, and what the traffic is telling you.

What I practiced

  • Basic scanning and interpreting results
  • Reading traffic captures at a beginner level
  • Writing down findings in a way that’s easy to follow

Tools

  • Nmap
  • Wireshark

Write-up (how I’ll expand this)

I’ll add screenshots, scan commands used, and key takeaways as I publish the lab artifacts.
