SSL Complete Guide 2021: HTTP to HTTPS - Analyzing HTTP Protocol Using Wireshark

The video tutorial explains the basics of TCP ports, IP addresses, and MAC addresses. It demonstrates how to capture and analyze HTTP data using Wireshark, focusing on identifying IP addresses and understanding HTTP headers. The tutorial highlights the security risks of transmitting data over HTTP, emphasizing that data is sent in plain text and can be intercepted. The session concludes with a brief mention of HTTPS as a more secure alternative.

What is the primary purpose of a TCP port?

• To identify the source and destination IP addresses

• To specify the protocol used for data transmission

• To determine the physical address of a device

• To establish a connection between two devices

Which tool is used to capture data sent to a website?

• Wireshark

• Terminal

• Network Tab

• Browser Console

How can you find the IP address of a website using the terminal?

• By using the 'netstat' command

• By using the 'nslookup' command

• By using the 'traceroute' command

• By using the 'ping' command

What information can be found in the HTTP protocol header?

• The encryption method used

• The physical location of the server

• The type of web browser used

• The MAC address of the server

What does a 200 OK response code indicate?

• The request was forbidden

• The request was redirected

• The request was successful

• The request was unauthorized

Why is sending data over HTTP considered insecure?

• Because it is slower than HTTPS

• Because it requires a secure connection

• Because it uses too much bandwidth

• Because data is sent in plain text

What is the main advantage of HTTPS over HTTP?

• It is faster

• It uses less data

• It encrypts data for security

• It is easier to implement
