Description

Ever wondered how computers really communicate? We'll take you by the hand and start from the very basics - the '0s' and '1s' that power our digital world. From there, you'll discover how computers talk to each other through networks, understand the backbone of the internet (TCP/IP), and learn to use real security tools like Wireshark.

 

No prior experience needed - just bring your curiosity and willingness to learn!
