Key learnings:
- Use Remnux VM to analyze suspicious files.
- Syntax to check the file type file <filename>
- strings utility extracts and prints the printable character sequences from a given file or what’s also known as ‘strings’.
- VirusTotal is a website that will scan files, URLs, IP addresses, domains, or a file hash you provide using 60+ different Antivirus software products and displays a summary of their scan results.
The rest of the exercise was fairly straightforward.
