Episode 158: IPv4 – Part 4

In this episode, we show how private address space works within an average home, and why we have to be careful about our assumptions when tracing IP addresses.

The SANS 3MinMax series with Kevin Ripa is designed around short, three-minute presentations on a variety of topics from within Digital Forensics, Incident Response, and to a lesser degree, Information Security.

About the author:
An investigator at heart, Kevin Ripa bought his first computer as a tool for writing reports for his private investigation agency. As he worked through typical user issues, the “why” of what was going wrong in his machine kept him up at night. So Kevin turned his investigative skills toward his computer and quickly became fascinated by the world inside of it. Now a 25-year veteran of the digital investigations field, Kevin’s enthusiasm has not waned: “IT security and digital forensics still inspire me every day, and I can’t wait to wake up in the morning and get to work!”
Kevin is a SANS Certified instructor and the co-author of the SANS course FOR498: Battlefield Forensics and Data Acquisition. For more information about the course, visit: http://www.sans.org/FOR498
