Features

Cobalt Strike’s system profiler discovers which client-side applications your target uses, with version information.

Beacon is Cobalt Strike’s payload to model an advanced actor. Beacon executes PowerShell scripts, logs keystrokes, takes screenshots, downloads files, and spawns other payloads.

Beacon’s network indicators are malleable. Load a C2 profile to look like another actor. Use HTTP, HTTPS, and DNS to egress a network. Use named pipes to control Beacons, peer-to-peer, over the SMB protocol.

Use Cobalt Strike to host a web drive-by attack or transform an innocent file into a trojan horse.
