Python Networking: TCP and UDP
In the last installment we looked at IP headers. One thing you might have seen missing is the port numbers. That's pretty important for making an internet connection. Well it turns out that IP tends to encapsulate other protocols (which is why it has protocol as part of the header). In this article we'll be looking at two popular protocols for internet traffic: TCP and UDP. Before we begin though install scapy which we'll be using to make things easier, and dnslib that will be used during the UDP section:

Is it possible to send raw data over an IP network, not encapsulated in TCP or UDP?

Pros and Cons of Rust for Cybersecurity
But, due to the young ecosystem, Rust isn't often the best choice for the 2nd category. There are exceptions: while working on a ROP exploitation CLI tool, I was surprised to find the top 3 fastest x86-64 disassemblers are all written in Rust. But other languages just have more mature security ecosystems. Python in particular has some amazing libraries like scapy and bindings for yara.

What's the "best" coding language to know/learn?
You can also manipulate them in higher languages or scripting such as Python. Check out Scapy as a good example of constructing packets from scratch. Python is powerful and also worth learning.

How to Create Virtual Environments in Python
Note that virtual environments assume you are using the same global version of Python. Often, this is not the case and additional tools like pyenv can be used alongside virtual environments when you need to switch between versions of Python itself on your local machine.

Integrating GPT in Your Project: Create an API for Anything Using LangChain and FastAPI
First of all, install the Python virtual environment from these links: 1 and 2. I developed my GPT-based API in Python version 3.8.18. Pick any Python versions >= 3.7.

Introducing Flama for Robust Machine Learning APIs
When dealing with software development, reproducibility is key. This is why we encourage you to use Python virtual environments to set up an isolated environment for your project. Virtual environments allow the isolation of dependencies, which plays a crucial role to avoid breaking compatibility between different projects. We cannot cover all the details about virtual environments in this post, but we encourage you to learn more about venv, pyenv or conda for a better understanding on how to create and manage virtual environments.

Python Versions and Release Cycles
For OSX there is homebrew or pyenv (pyenv is another solution on Linux). As pyenv compiles from source it will require setting up XCode (the Apple IDE) tools to support this which can be pretty bulky. Windows users have chocolatey but the issue there is it works off the binaries. That means it won't have the latest security release available since those are source only. Conda is also another solution which can be picked up by Visual Studio Code as available versions of Python making development easier. In the end it might be best to consider using WSL on Windows for installing a Linux version and using that instead.

Installing kohya_ss GUI on AWS
I had previously installed pyenv, and then used that to install Python 3.10.6. Amazon's Linux 2 has an older version of Python installed by default, and using pyenv seemed like the best solution to installing a newer version of Python. I am also familiar with pyenv, having used it before, and it plays nicely with Pipenv. The Python community has developed a few solutions for package/dependency management in the last several years. There are also a few options when it comes to virtual environment creation and management. Poetry is a popular choice, and while I don't have strong opinions on which solution is best, I tend to use Pipenv. So, considering all the available solutions for handling multiple Python versions, recommending people to use python3.10-venv was a strange decision.

Getting started with Python and Playwright
We then use pyenv which is a command line tool used to manage multiple versions of Python. This is useful if you are working on multiple projects that use different versions of Python. Check out the GitHub readme of the 'pyenv' project for more information on how to install it on your operating system. For windows check out pyenv-win or you can use venv Python's Built-in Virtual Environment.
