Classe: Backdoor
Os backdoors são projetados para permitir que usuários mal-intencionados controlem remotamente o computador infectado. Em termos de funcionalidade, os Backdoors são semelhantes a muitos sistemas de administração projetados e distribuídos por desenvolvedores de software. Esses tipos de programas mal-intencionados possibilitam fazer qualquer coisa que o autor queira no computador infectado: enviar e receber arquivos, iniciar ou excluir arquivos, exibir mensagens, excluir dados, reinicializar o computador etc. Os programas nessa categoria costumam ser usados a fim de unir um grupo de computadores da vítima e formar uma rede de botnets ou zumbis. Isso dá aos usuários mal-intencionados controle centralizado sobre um exército de computadores infectados que podem ser usados para fins criminosos. Há também um grupo de Backdoors que são capazes de se espalhar através de redes e infectar outros computadores como os Net-Worms. A diferença é que tais Backdoors não se propagam automaticamente (como fazem os Net-Worms), mas apenas com um “comando” especial do usuário mal-intencionado que os controla.Plataforma: Win32
O Win32 é uma API em sistemas operacionais baseados no Windows NT (Windows XP, Windows 7, etc.) que oferece suporte à execução de aplicativos de 32 bits. Uma das plataformas de programação mais difundidas do mundo.Família: Backdoor.Win32.Hupigon

Command and Control
The adversary is trying to communicate with compromised systems to control them.
Command and Control consists of techniques that adversaries may use to communicate with systems under their control within a victim network. Adversaries commonly attempt to mimic normal, expected traffic to avoid detection. There are many ways an adversary can establish command and control with various levels of stealth depending on the victim’s network structure and defenses.

Non-Application Layer Protocol
Adversaries may use an OSI non-application layer protocol for communication between host and C2 server or among infected hosts within a network. The list of possible protocols is extensive.(Citation: Wikipedia OSI) Specific examples include use of network layer protocols, such as the Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP), transport layer protocols, such as the User Datagram Protocol (UDP), session layer protocols, such as Socket Secure (SOCKS), as well as redirected/tunneled protocols, such as Serial over LAN (SOL).
ICMP communication between hosts is one example.(Citation: Cisco Synful Knock Evolution) Because ICMP is part of the Internet Protocol Suite, it is required to be implemented by all IP-compatible hosts.(Citation: Microsoft ICMP) However, it is not as commonly monitored as other Internet Protocols such as TCP or UDP and may be used by adversaries to hide communications.
