Hosts sharing a value with this one

89 other hosts in this archive share at least one value with this one. Each is listed once, under its first shared value in Relations order. Dates and status are from the records that share a value. Showing the 40 that rank first. Every host shown is labelled Cobalt Strike, as this one is.

Every beacon carries its team server’s public key. Hosts sharing one were set up from the same server installation, or from a leaked or cracked copy that ships its key file, so it is not evidence of a single operator.
