Wireshark

After a short 10 year build time (I kid…), one of the best security tools out has reached the v1.0 milestone. Wireshark 1.0.0. was released this weekend! You can read more about it in this news item as well as grabbing the file from the Wireshark site. I’ve used Ethereal since the early days and it’s always been one of my staple network/security tools. I big congrats to the team! Here’s the news release:

I’m proud to announce the release of Wireshark 1.0. This is the culmination of nearly ten years of hard work by a team of brilliant and talented developers. It is an honor to be able to work with these people.
On behalf of the development team, I would like to thank Wireshark’s user community for all of your enthusiasm and support over the years. Wireshark development will continue, and we have lots of great features to offer in the coming years.
