Question for those in the home security business / those that have created a product.

I have zero experience in the owning a business world, but I’ve come up with something I honestly believe could save the lives of a lot of children, and people in general. I’m finalizing an initial design, and getting everything sorted before going in depth with anyone about what it is because, honestly, on paper, it’s very simple and I don’t want the idea yanked and taken to market from under my feet.

That said… where would someone not in the industry go with this to see if anyone was interested in it? Would it be better to creat a company and attach it to the idea when approaching others? Or would I be better off attaching it to myself and not having whatever complications a personal company might cause? I don’t have the engineering, manufacturing, know how, funds, or means to create a company to sell this myself, and I’m not quite sure where to start. So, if anyone has any words of wisdom, I’d be more than happy to hear them.

Thanks,

How to use packet sniffer? (WireShark)

So i’ve read you can do allot with a packet sniffer, i am not looking to do anything illegal, but i do want to know how i ‘ analyze ‘ the files, see if there is anything wrong but also know what types of files show what,

Let’s say i want to know if my DNS is being poisioned, i want to know what i should check obviously, and what if i want to know if there’s uncrypted data packets being sent, i’m curious about that.

I am not sure if i’m allowed to discuss this, since if it’s used in a bad way it is illegal, but my intent is to learn.

Edit:

I’m seeing packets that say extra things like TCP Spurious Retransmission, TCP Dup ACK, and allot of weird names like the ACK and RST and Handshake / protected payload / Notify Application data, etc etc.

How do those things work?
