sliver VS EvilOSX

IDK if you are too young to remember the fallout from Snowden, but the Kremlin threw out entire rooms computers and for a time used actual typewriters. Because those computers had, more or less, twingate connectors on them. That's a bit of a rich example, but you're essentially installing what sliver calls an implant, what meterpreter calls a payload, and what Cobalt Strike calls a beacon. It's cool if you want to, but there's no need when you can just open a port with the same technology a Fortune 50 does.

Sliver is neat, https://github.com/BishopFox/sliver

Armitage is precursor to CS but they diverged a long time ago. I ran up the armitage that comes with Kali these days, it has issues and bugs that would prevent it being useful. Sliver is probably the most usable FOSS C2. https://github.com/BishopFox/sliver

I’m a huge fan of Sliver, super powerful and well written/maintained with a lot of care and attention paid to tradecraft. I’m a big fan of the features like the built-in support for DNS canaries to detect blue team analysis. Only downside is that the documentation may be a little lacking.

For the additional more advanced steps I used sliver as a c2. Sliver is an excellent tool for the job and unlike some other tools, it's FOSS! You can easily replace sliver with your tool of choice, however.
