monitoring-scada-modbus-traffic-anomalies

monitoring-scada-modbus-traffic-anomalies is a Blue team & detection skill for AI agents, published by 26zl in the cybersec-toolkit repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates monitoring-scada-modbus-traffic-anomalies F (45/100) and the safety scan rated it risky; the rating is based on static analysis only.

Monitors Modbus TCP traffic on SCADA and ICS networks to detect anomalous function code usage, unauthorized register writes, and suspicious communication patterns. The analyst uses deep packet inspection with pymodbus, Scapy, and Zeek to baseline normal PLC/RTU communication behavior, then applies statistical and rule-based anomaly detection to identify reconnaissance, parameter manipulation, and denial-of-service attacks targeting Modbus devices on port 502. Activates for requests involving Modbus traffic analysis, SCADA network monitoring, ICS anomaly detection, PLC security monitoring, or OT network threat detection.
