## Idea ## Idea
If you get access to a [PCAP](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pcap) file, for example during a CTF or captured on your own, you usually have the problem of overlooking all the relevant information to get a basic idea of the capture file. This gets worse if the capture file includes lots of white noise or irrelevant traffic - often included in the capture file to cloak *interesting* packets in a bunch of packets to YouTube, Reddit, Twitter and others.

*pancap* addresses this problem. With multiple submodules, it analyzes the given PCAP file and extracts useful information out of it. In many cases, this saves you a lot of time and can point you into the right direction. *pancap* addresses this problem.
