This book is for those who are interested in analyzing and attacking network protocols but don’t know where to start. The chapters will guide you through learning techniques to capture network traffic, performing analysis of the protocols, and discovering and exploiting security vulnerabilities. The book provides background information on networking and network security, as well as practical examples of protocols to analyze. Whether you want to attack network protocols to report security vulnerabilities to an application’s vendor or just want to know how your latest IoT device communicates, you’ll find several topics of interest. 

This book contains a mix of theoretical and practical chapters. For the practical chapters, I’ve developed and made available a networking library called Canape Core, which you can use to build your own tools for protocol analysis and exploitation. I’ve also provided an example networked application called SuperFunkyChat, which implements a user-to-user chat protocol. By following the discussions in the chapters, you can use the example application to learn the skills of protocol analysis and attack the sample network protocols.
