Malleable C2 Overview

Cobalt Strike Beacon's indicators are controlled by a Malleable profile (also known as Malleable C2). A Malleable profile is a simple program that specifies how to transform data and store it in a transaction. Malleable C2 profiles also control Beacon’s in-memory characteristics, determine how Beacon does process injection, and influence Cobalt Strike’s post-exploitation jobs too.
