Pre-Conference Class II: Introduction to Stratoshark for Network Engineers
2026-07-20 , Room 1

Stratoshark brings Wireshark-style visibility to the Linux system, letting you see what's happening inside the OS alongside the network traffic it generates. In this hands-on workshop, you'll learn to use sysdig and Stratoshark to trace system calls, correlate them with packet data, and answer questions that packets alone can't — like which process handled a connection or how a service behaved under load. Designed for network engineers ready to go one level deeper, the session blends short lectures with guided exercises using cloud-based lab systems. You'll leave with a working understanding of Stratoshark and the confidence to begin using it in your own analysis.
