Impacket is a collection of Python classes designed for the construction, manipulation, and analysis of low-level network packets and services. It functions as a framework for building custom network tools, providing a programmatic interface to interact with communication protocols and service architectures.
The library provides primitives for managing authentication, session state, and remote procedure calls within network environments. By offering a modular class hierarchy, it allows for the assembly of network packets and the implementation of specialized communication stacks.
The project supports the development of scripts for network protocol research, security assessment automation, and the administration of remote services. It includes a suite of tools for interacting with and testing various network services, particularly those common in Windows environments.
