Eddi Blenkers
For over 20 years, Eddi has been looking at network protocols to find (or rule out) network problems, vulnerabilities, ongoing hacking attacks or just for fun.
Working for the Swiss train company BLS as IT security analyst, he is reviewing the configuration of a multitude of systems to improve the overall security of the domain. Wireshark is one of the tools to verify the outcome of a configuration change.

Sessions
SMB is the bread and butter protocol used to access file shares in virtually every company and home network. Since Windows Vista / Server 2008, the "classic" SMB has been replaced by SMB2 and later SMB3. As legacy systems running Windows XP / Server 2003 are increasingly rare, we focus on the newer version.
Based on student feedback the class from 2025 is now offered as a 2 day class. The 2 day format allows more time for practical exercises.
