This research paper delves into the problematic architecture of HTTP/HTTPS-based Command and Control (C2) servers, a pivotal aspect in present day cyberattacks. We look at the strategies hired with the aid of C2 serversto set up covert communication channels, evade detection, and keep control over compromised systems. The paper explores the function of cloud-primarily based infrastructure in improving the scalability and resilience of C2 servers, while also discussing the challenges it poses for cybersecurity specialists. By understanding the mechanisms and strategies hired by way of C2 servers, we aim to make contributions to the development of extra effective defense mechanisms and mitigate the impact of cyber threats.
