Encrypted Traffic Malware Investigation
Step into a real-world incident response scenario at a financial institution where anomalous outbound connections have triggered security alerts. This investigation challenges you to decrypt encrypted network traffic, identify malicious file downloads, and trace command-and-control communications linked to a banking trojan infection. Through systematic network forensics and threat analysis, you'll develop practical skills in detecting malware delivery patterns, analyzing encrypted channels, and pinpointing compromised endpoints within enterprise environments
