Section 3: Challenge and Analysis

You are conducting a security investigation of malicious activity that took place on the
TargetLinux01 workstation. As part of your investigation, you would like to send a log file
from the system to your instructor to get advice on interpreting login attempts. The
authentication log is stored in the /var/log/auth.log file.

Log into the TargetLinux01 system using the student account, obtain a copy of the file, and
encrypt it using AES encryption so that only Matthew Hunter can read the file.
Make a screen capture showing the commands used to encrypt and copy the file.

• Create both keys for each user


• Transfer student key to instructor
• Copy file from student terminal
• Encrypt file from student terminal
• Add permission to file from student terminal

• Copy file to instructor terminal


• Decrypt file on instructor terminal

Next, copy the file to the instructor account and decrypt it there.

Make a screen capture showing the commands used to copy and decrypt the file.
I’ve encrypt the file, I can see the encrypted file in the /tmp, however I am unable to execute
successful decryption. I am receiving errors which I have not been able to figure out.
