SECRET//ORCON//NOFORN
1.1 Concept of Operations
Assassin is an automated Implant that provides a simple collection platform on
remote computers running the Microsoft Windows operating system. Once the tool
is installed on the target, the implant is run within a Windows service process.
Assassin will then periodically beacon to its configured listening post(s) to request
tasking and deliver results. Communication occurs over one or more transport
protocols as configured before or during deployment.
