Network Intrusion Analysis
Investigation of suspicious network activity involving potential data exfiltration attempts. Analysis focused on identifying attack vectors, timeline reconstruction, and evidence preservation for incident response documentation.
Evidence Examined:
Investigative Questions:
- • What was the source of unauthorized network access?
- • What data was accessed or transferred?
- • When did the intrusion occur and how long did it persist?
Endpoint Malware Detection
Forensic examination of compromised endpoint revealing persistent malware artifacts. Investigation focused on malware behavior analysis, persistence mechanisms, and system artifact recovery for threat documentation.
Evidence Examined:
Investigative Questions:
- • How did the malware initially compromise the system?
- • What persistence mechanisms were established?
- • What system changes and data access occurred?
Memory Forensics Challenge
Analysis of volatile memory dump to identify running processes and network connections. Investigation focused on detecting memory-resident malware, analyzing process behavior, and recovering volatile evidence for security assessment.
Evidence Examined:
Investigative Questions:
- • What processes were running at the time of acquisition?
- • Were there any suspicious network connections?
- • Can we identify code injection or memory manipulation?
OSINT Investigation
OSINT-Assisted Investigation
Simulated open-source intelligence gathering for threat assessment purposes. Investigation focused on publicly available information analysis, digital footprint reconstruction, and threat intelligence correlation for security evaluation.
Evidence Examined:
Investigative Questions:
- • What publicly available information exists about the target?
- • Can we identify patterns or associations in digital presence?
- • What security implications can be assessed from OSINT?
