# SKILL: Traffic Analysis & PCAP — Expert Analysis Playbook

> **AI LOAD INSTRUCTION**: Expert traffic analysis and PCAP forensics techniques. Covers PCAP repair, Wireshark essential filters, protocol-specific analysis (HTTP, HTTPS/TLS, DNS, FTP, SMTP, USB HID, WiFi, ICMP), data extraction (file carving, credential harvesting, covert channels), NetworkMiner, and tshark CLI analysis. Base models miss USB keyboard decode patterns, DNS tunneling detection heuristics, and TLS decryption workflows.
