Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install silenttrinity on Kali Linux.

What is `silenttrinity`

silenttrinity is:

This package contains a modern, asynchronous, multiplayer & multiserver
C2/post-exploitation framework powered by Python 3 and .NETs DLR. It’s the
culmination of an extensive amount of research into using embedded third-party
.NET scripting languages to dynamically call .NET API’s, a technique the
author coined as BYOI (Bring Your Own Interpreter). The aim of this tool and
the BYOI concept is to shift the paradigm back to PowerShell style like
attacks (as it offers much more flexibility over traditional C# tradecraft)
only without using PowerShell in anyway.

Some of the main features that distinguish SILENTTRINITY are:
– Multi-User & Multi-Server – Supports multi-user collaboration.
Additionally, the client can connect to and control multiple Teamservers.
– Client and Teamserver Built in Python 3.7 – Latest and greatest features
of the Python language are used, heavy use of Asyncio provides ludicrous
speeds.
– Real-time Updates and Communication – Use of Websockets allow for
real-time communication and updates between the Client and Teamserver.
– Focus on Usability with an Extremely Modern CLI – Powered by
prompt-toolkit.
– Dynamic Evaluation/Compilation Using .NET Scripting Languages – The
SILENTTRINITY implant Naga, is somewhat unique as it uses embedded
third-party .NET scripting languages (e.g. Boolang) to dynamically
compile/evaluate tasks, this removes the need to compile tasks server
side, allows for real-time editing of modules, provides greater
flexibilty and stealth over traditional C# based payloads and makes
everything much more light-weight.
– ECDHE Encrypted C2 Communication – SILENTTRINITY uses Ephemeral Elliptic
Curve Diffie-Hellman Key Exchange to encrypt all C2 traffic between the
Teamserver and its implant.
– Fully Modular – Listeners, Modules, Stagers and C2 Channels are fully
modular allowing operators to easily build their own.
– Extensive logging – Every action is logged to a file.
– Future proof – HTTPS/HTTP listeners are built on Quart & Hypercorn which
also support HTTP2 & Websockets.
