A community maintained repository of Beacon Object Files (BOFs) for the offensive security community.

OpenBOF is an open, community driven repository dedicated to collecting, maintaining, and documenting Beacon Object Files (BOFs). Our mission is to provide a centralized resource where security professionals can discover high quality BOFs, contribute new capabilities, and collaborate to strengthen the offensive security ecosystem.

Whether you're a red team operator, security researcher, or developer, OpenBOF is designed to make finding and sharing BOFs simple, consistent, and accessible.

Our goal is to become the definitive community resource for publicly available Beacon Object Files by:

• Maintaining a centralized collection of BOFs.
• Encouraging community contributions and collaboration.
• Improving discoverability through consistent organization and documentation.
• Preserving attribution and licensing for every contribution.
• Providing clear documentation and examples for each BOF.
