Command&Control

This project is an educational proof-of-concept designed to simulate a basic Command & Control (C2) communication model using TCP sockets.

The purpose of this repository is to study how remote command channels operate from a behavioral and networking perspective, helping to understand patterns commonly analyzed in security research and anti-cheat environments.

This project was developed strictly for learning, experimentation and controlled laboratory research.

🧠 Research Context

The project simulates a simple client-server architecture where a remote endpoint receives commands through a TCP channel. Rather than focusing on offensive usage, the goal is to explore:

• Basic C2 communication flow
• Remote command execution behavior
• Networking patterns used in controlled simulations
• Foundations for detection and defensive analysis

⚙️ Project Structure

• victim.py → Simulated client that establishes a TCP connection
• attacker.py → Command sender used to test communication behavior

Important Waring

Avoid terminating the program with "Ctrl + C" as it may cause a bug. You can end the program with "Ctrl + Z" in linux or by closing the terminal!

Deploy

Linux

  python3 victim.py
  python3 attacker.py

Windows

  python victim.py
  python attacker.py
