LAB - Eye House Tools

Analyze DNS traffic patterns using Wireshark. Learn to identify normal DNS queries, detect DNS tunneling, and recognize DNS-based C2 communication indicators.

Lab Objectives

  • Capture and filter DNS traffic
  • Analyze DNS query and response structure
  • Identify suspicious DNS patterns (high entropy, unusual TLD)
  • Detect potential DNS tunneling indicators
  • Extract IOCs from DNS traffic
