About Scapy
Scapy, a Python program, revolutionizes network packet manipulation by offering extensive capabilities including packet sending, sniffing, dissecting, and forging. This multifaceted tool empowers users to construct bespoke solutions for network probing, scanning, and security testing. Unlike conventional networking tools, Scapy boasts an interactive interface enabling users to craft, decode, and interpret packets with unparalleled flexibility. Its domain-specific language simplifies packet description and manipulation, epitomized by its ability to describe packets in just a few lines of code. Scapy’s unique approach diverges from traditional tools by providing raw, uninterpreted data, facilitating nuanced analysis and eliminating biases inherent in interpreted results.
