What you'll learn

Modern networks make it increasingly difficult for Command and Control systems to operate without detection. In this course, Specialized Red Teaming: Create Custom C2, you’ll gain the ability to design, build, and adapt C2 frameworks that operate under real-world constraints. First, you’ll explore how C2 traffic behaves across modern networks and how defenders identify it. Next, you’ll discover how to build and evolve HTTP and HTTPS-based C2 with practical evasion techniques. Finally, you’ll learn how to adapt your tooling to dynamic environments using timing control, redirectors, and resilient communication strategies. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of custom C2 development and network evasion needed to design, analyze, and refine stealthy communication channels.
