- Compile-time obfuscation
- Multiplayer-mode for collaborative operations
- Support for staged and stageless payloads
- Procedurally generated C2 over HTTP(S)
- Secure C2 over mTLS, WireGuard, HTTP(S), and DNS
- Fully scriptable via JavaScript/TypeScript and Python
- Windows process migration, injection, and user token manipulation
