Enter the full URL of the target (e.g., http://192.168.1.100:8080 ). For HTTPS, ensure the tool validates certificates or disable verification in the booster script.
Legacy HOIC used a simple pseudo-random number generator (PRNG) with 32-bit state. HOIC-64 implements:
The creation of HOIC-64 shifts the threat landscape in several ways: HOIC - High Orbit Ion Cannon 64 bit
In the landscape of network security and penetration testing, few tool names carry as much provocative weight as those derived from science fiction weaponry. The "Ion Cannon" family of tools—starting with the original Low Orbit Ion Cannon (LOIC) and evolving into the High Orbit Ion Cannon (HOIC)—has been a controversial staple in the hacker and cybersecurity community for over a decade.
64-bit systems handle thread contexts more efficiently. While a 32-bit HOIC can run up to 256 threads, a 64-bit version can support thousands of threads, sending a tsunami of HTTP requests per second from a single machine. Enter the full URL of the target (e
The 64-bit version allows the software to utilize more system memory and processor threads, enabling up to 256 simultaneous attack threads Booster Scripts:

HOIC-64 is reimagined as a native C++17 application compiled for x86_64 (Windows/Linux) with optional ARM64 support. The architecture is divided into three layers: , Threading Engine , and Payload Generator .
