Beacon

What is Beacon type?

The Beacon scenario focuses on generating beacons and facilitating command-and-control (C2) communications. This scenario is crucial for testing the ability of security solutions to detect and manage C2 activities, which are a critical aspect of many sophisticated cyber attacks. By simulating these communications, the Beacon scenario evaluates how well security defenses can identify and interrupt ongoing C2 channels, ensuring that organizations are prepared to handle advanced threats that rely on maintaining covert communication with compromised systems. This scenario is key to enhancing the detection and disruption of ongoing attacks.
