For background, #CobaltStrike is an "adversary simulation tool" (pentesting tools vs malware sometimes are only philosophically different #FightMe). It is widely used for legitimate security testing, pre-ransomware operations and other malicious threat actors.

The files provide are called Beacon. It's the malware deployed and controlled by CobaltStrike. While the two names are commonly misused interchangeably (even by myself). @Mandiant did a solid write-up on names. mandiant.com/resources/defi…

Unsolicited advice from a neurosurgeon.
Putting a drain in a newborn's brain after a brain bleed makes everyone sad, and a permanent neurologic deficit or unnecessary death is even worse. Please don't refuse the Vitamin K shot for your newborn.

Vitamin K is natural and is needed by all people for their blood to clot. In utero, babies don't have enough and Vitamin K doesn't cross the placenta, so newborns are deficient. Most will be ok, but a portion of newborns will bleed and even die if they aren't given Vitamin K.
Vitamin K is a safe intervention that saves a significant number of babies from death or disability. It also keeps your friendly neighborhood neurosurgeon happy. Carry on.
