# ShadowShells | Observed Indicators (Confirmed Malicious)
## Purpose
This package contains **sanitized traces and echoes** of observed entities | domains, UUIDs, processes, and signature strings | directly linked to confirmed command-and-control activity.
All data here is **metadata only**. No raw logs, PCAPs, or sensitive artifacts are included. ShadowShells acts as a **watchtower**, cataloging and guiding detection of hostile infrastructure.
## Intended Use
- Ingest `iocs.csv` into monitoring tooling, SIEM rules, DNS tracking, or threat-hunting routines.
- Apply `blocklist.txt` for defensive blocking or sinkholing.
- Consult `key_hits.txt` to track behaviors or patterns: shell anomalies, proxy/tunnel strings, beacon pulses.
## License
**Defensive use only. Provided as-is. No warranty.**
