Scapy is a free and open source packet manipulation environment written in Python language. In this paper we present a Modbus extension to Scapy, and show how this environment can be used to build tools for security analysis of industrial network protocols. Our implementation can be extended to other industrial network protocols and can help security analysts to understand how these protocols work under attacks or adverse conditions.
