HTTP
What is it?
The "HTTP" C2 profile speaks the exact same protocol as the Mythic server itself.  All other C2 profiles will translate between their own special sauce back to this format. This profile has a docker container as well that you can start that uses a simple JSON configuration to redirect traffic on another port (with potentially different SSL configurations) to the main Mythic server. 
How does it work?
This container code starts a small Sanic web server that accepts messages on the specified port and proxies all connections to the /api/v1.4/agent_message endpoint within Mythic. This allows you to host the Mythic instance on port 7443 for example and expose the default HTTP profile on port 443 or 80. 
Clicking the "Configure" button gives a few options for how to edit and interact with the profile.
Using SSL
If you want to use SSL with this profile, copy your SSL private key and cert into the C2_Profiles/HTTP/c2_code folder and update the config.json file to have the key_path and cert_path variables be the name of the private key and cert you copied over. You have to copy the two files into this c2_code folder because the profile starts its own container which can't access files outside of the c2_code folder.
Supported Payloads and Info
This sections allows you to see some information about the C2 profile, including sample configurations.
The name of a C2 profile cannot be changed once it's created, but everything else can change. The Supported Payloads shows which payload types can speak the language of this C2 profile. 
Profile Parameters
This dialog displays the current parameters associated with the C2 profile. These are the values you must supply when using the C2 profile to create an agent.
Default C2 Profile parameters
There are a few things to note here:
Name - This is just a human readable name that will be shown to the user when creating a payload for this c2 profile. It can be as descriptive as you want.
Key - When creating the actual payload, this key keyword is used to identify the parameters so that it's easy to find the corresponding values the user supplied. When creating payloads, the payload type container will get a dictionary of "key" to "user supplied value" mappings.
Hint - This is what's auto-populated as a hint for the user when creating a payload so that they have an idea of default values or what they should supply.
randomize - This specifies if you want to randomize the value that's auto-populated for the user.
format_string - This is where you can specify how to generate the string in the hint when creating a payload. For example, setting randomize to true and a format_string of \d{10} will generate a random 10 digit integer.
This can be seen with the same test parameter in the above screenshot.
Every time you view the parameters, select to save an instance of the parameters, or go to create a new payload, another random instance from this format_string will be auto-populated into that c2 profile parameter's hint field.
The key AESPSK is a special keyword in Mythic. For each operation, Mythic creates a static 32byte AES key that will be auto displayed (like above) if the key says AESPSK. This is simply for ease of use. If you want to use AES256 with a different value, the use can swap that out when creating a payload. If you don't use that exact key name, then a value won't be auto populated.
