* Modules
    * Post Exploitation
    * Pivoting

## Domain Fronting

* Use a Domain on the C2 server 
* User Cloudflare to proxy the request and responses to and from the target
* Use HTTPs for channel encryption

## Profiles

* Server evaluates by custom user-agents to identify agents

## Types

* Std listener, TCP or UDP
* HTTP/HTTPS, counter FW
* DNS, if internet access of the target is flaky
* SMB, counter network segments

## Redirector

* Apache or nginx as reverse proxy in front of the  c2 server
* FW is still needed in front of the redirector
* These get burned instead of the c2
