The Slingshot CS Matrix Edition was made in collaboration with SANS, Ryan O'Grady, and C2 Matrix contributors. The goal is to lower the learning curve of installing each C2 framework and getting you straight to testing which C2s work against your organization. Slingshot C2 Matrix Edition is ideal for red team, blue team, and purple team functions.

Slingshot C2 Matrix Edition brings the following C2s pre-installed:

• ​Covenant​

• ​Empire3 with Starkiller​

• ​Faction​

• ​Koadic​

• ​Merlin​

• ​Metasploit​

• ​SilentTrinity​

• ​Sliver​

Slingshot - C2 Matrix Edition also includes a number of other tools that red teamers and penetration testers will find useful such as VECTR for tracking red and purple team exercises.
