Ransomware attacks are a significant concern in the cybersecurity landscape for 2024. It's important for organizations, including critical election systems, to be ready to defend against them proactively.

The sixth installment of the OpShieldWall series helps you learn about and reduce these risks.

Armed with ransomware executables from the RedBadger site, you’re tasked to break down these harmful files and provide vital Indicators of Compromise (IOCs).

By finishing this task, you’ll:

  • Recognize and classify different encryption methods like AES, RSA, and DES in the code.
  • Grasp how IVs, keys, and other encryption components are made, saved, and used in the program.
  • Translate observed encryption logic into corresponding decryption logic.
  • Spot common anti-reversing techniques designed to hinder reverse engineering efforts.

Good luck, and happy hunting!
