Has anyone used Wireshark to forensically prove a signal hack
no, I have not and based on your assumption to use a TV transmitter, Wireshark is the wrong tool for such an endeavor.
The reasons are:
- You need a capture device that is able to capture TV signals.
- You need a decoder that can decode 'TV signals'. Wireshark does not have such a decoder.
- Wireshark was mainly built to dissect Ethernet/IP packet. While it can dissect a lot of other protocols now, why do you assume, that such a uber attacker would use a known encoding scheme, when he want's to leak data via a TV signal
Long story short: I'm sorry, but there is no way to use Wireshark for the type of forensic analysis you described.
