A Python 3 port of the source code from the book 'Black Hat Python' by Justin Seitz, reformatted to PEP8 and refactored to fix deprecated libraries and bugs. It serves as a companion codebase for readers learning offensive security and network programming techniques in Python.

Use cases

• follow along with the Black Hat Python book exercises in Python 3
• learn how to build network sniffers and packet decoders in Python
• study example SSH server and client implementations for ethical hacking
• build a TCP port scanner as a learning exercise
• understand deprecated library replacements when porting old Python 2 security tools
• practice ethical hacking tool development with working sample code

When to choose

• you are reading 'Black Hat Python' and need working Python 3 code
• you want a maintained, bug-fixed version of the book's original repository
• you are learning offensive security and network programming fundamentals in Python

When to avoid

• you need production-ready, hardened security tooling for real engagements
• you want modern idiomatic Python with type hints, docstrings, and full test coverage
• you need a tool with an active license or official support
