Geacon is a Go implementation of CobaltStrike's Beacon implant, built to study the C2 protocol through reverse engineering. It supports command execution, file upload/download, and file browsing against CobaltStrike 4.x team servers.

Use cases

  • implement a cobaltstrike beacon in go
  • learn cobaltstrike c2 protocol analysis
  • test red team tooling against a teamserver
  • study how beacon communicates with team server
  • cross-platform implant for security research
  • reverse engineer cobaltstrike network protocol

When to choose

  • you want to learn or research the CobaltStrike Beacon protocol in Go
  • you need a lightweight open-source beacon for authorized red team testing on Linux or macOS
  • you are studying protocol reverse engineering techniques

When to avoid

  • you need full CobaltStrike feature parity or custom C2 profiles
  • you want a maintained production-grade implant with a license
  • you cannot legally use offensive security tooling in your jurisdiction
