+# Scapy #
+
+Scapy is a powerful Python-based interactive packet manipulation
+program and library.
+
+It is able to forge or decode packets of a wide number of protocols,
+send them on the wire, capture them, match requests and replies, and
+much more.
+
+It can easily handle most classical tasks like scanning, tracerouting,
+probing, unit tests, attacks or network discovery (it can replace
+hping, 85% of nmap, arpspoof, arp-sk, arping, tcpdump, tethereal, p0f,
+etc.). It also performs very well at a lot of other specific tasks
+that most other tools can't handle, like sending invalid frames,
+injecting your own 802.11 frames, combining technics (VLAN hopping+ARP
+cache poisoning, VOIP decoding on WEP encrypted channel, ...),
+etc.
+
+See
+[interactive tutorial](http://www.secdev.org/projects/scapy/doc/usage.html#interactive-tutorial)
+and
+[the quick demo: an interactive session](http://www.secdev.org/projects/scapy/demo.html)
