In this Guided Project, learners will take on the role of a novice security analyst helping a company detect certain network traffic on their server by capturing and analyzing web traffic. Such skills are invaluable in both cybersecurity and software development domains for better understanding the communication going on between a client and a server. In this 1.5-hour long project-based course, you will learn how to set up and use Wireshark to capture, save, and filter HTTP and HTTPS packets. In order to be successful in this project you should understand computer networking terminology such as IP address, HTTP, HTTPS, TCP, and handshakes.

By the end of this Guided Project, you will be able to apply different decryption algorithms and techniques using Python. Moreover, you will apply cryptography concepts through completing several practical exercises to build a solid foundation in decrypting information and data using several renowned industry encryption algorithms. You will write programs that decrypt data using ciphers including the reverse cipher Caesar Cipher and Fernet symmetric and RSA asymmetric encryption algorithms. This project will provide you with the skills needed to write software that encrypt and decrypt data. 

Note: This project is for intermediate Python programmers who already have a basic familiarity with Python programming language and are interested in cryptography.
