A C++ proof-of-concept implementing an in-memory evasion technique that encrypts shellcode and fluctuates its memory protection between RW/NoAccess and RX while it sleeps. It hooks kernel32!Sleep to hide Cobalt Strike Beacon implants from memory scanners like Moneta and pe-sieve.

Use cases

  • evade memory scanners detecting shellcode in RWX regions
  • encrypt beacon payload while sleeping
  • hide shellcode memory pages from pe-sieve and Moneta
  • implement sleep-time shellcode encryption in red team tooling
  • study in-memory evasion techniques
  • flip shellcode memory protection between RW and RX

When to choose

  • you need a reference implementation of sleep-time shellcode encryption
  • you're building red team tooling that must evade memory scanners
  • you want to learn how memory protection fluctuation works

When to avoid

  • you need a weaponized production implant
  • you target non-Windows platforms
  • you need a maintained tool with ongoing support
