5.2 Push Directories
Assassin provides ‘push’ directories, intended to support third-party tools. Two
directories created by the Assassin implant, the output and push folders, will push
files from the target machine to the listening post. Files detected in these
directories are immediately packaged with metadata and encrypted for
transmission. Metadata collected for pushed files includes the file’s name and
size, the time it was detected, and the ID of the Implant that collected it.
Files placed in the output directory are placed in the upload queue for later
transmission. Files placed in the push directory are uploaded immediately; if the
immediate upload fails, the file is placed in the upload queue with priority status.
