Wireshark is a widely used network protocol analyzer that supports various capture file formats, including those generated by tcpdump.

The.pcapextension is a standard format for packet capture files and is fully supported by Wireshark.

The file extension or the inclusion of characters such as "-" in the file name does not impact Wireshark's ability to open and read the file.

When the engineer opens thesandboxmatware2022-12-22.pcapsfile in Wireshark, the tool will read the packet capture data, allowing for detailed analysis of network traffic.
