Netzob is an opensource tool which supports the expert in its operations of reverse engineering, evaluation and simulation of communication protocols. Its main goals are to help security evaluators to :

• Assess the robustness of proprietary or unknown protocols implementation.
• Simulate realistic communications to test third-party products (IDS, firewalls, etc.).
• Create an open source implementation of a proprietary or unknown protocol.

Netzob supports the expert in a semi-automatic inferring process of any communication protocol.
Hence, it includes the necessaries to passively learn the vocabulary of a protocol and to actively infer its grammar. The learnt protocol can afterward be simulated.
