From the README
Sliver is an open source cross-platform adversary emulation/red team framework, it can be used by organizations of all sizes to perform security testing. Sliver's implants support C2 over Mutual TLS (mTLS), WireGuard, HTTP(S), and DNS and are dynamically compiled with per-binary asymmetric encryption keys.
The server and client support MacOS, Windows, and Linux. Implants are supported on MacOS, Windows, and Linux (and possibly every Golang compiler target but we've not tested them all).
NOTE: You are looking at the latest master branch of Sliver v1.6.0; new PRs should target this branch. However, this branch is NOT RECOMMENDED for production use yet. Please use release tagged versions for the best experience.
For PRs containing bug fixes specific to Sliver v1.5, please target the
v1.5.x/masterbranch.
