TL;DR
We're given a USB Pcapng that 30k+ Packets. A couple of them contains details that the device is a keyboard
Solution
First we extract the leftover capture data from the packets using this command below
tshark -r monkey-see.pcapng -Y "usb" -T fields -e usb.capdata > output.txtAnd the output will contains all leftover capture data like below.
