Unusual Login

Welcome to your first shift! You are greeted by an internal alert on the dashboard titled "Unusual login of susan.martin@probablyfine. from 37.19.201.132 (Singapore)."

The SOC handover notes did indeed mention that Susan from Marketing is in Singapore, attending a security vendor conference. It is probably just fine, but the SOC procedure tells us to verify each IP in our threat intel platform TryDetectThis. Answer the first four questions to gather more information and determine the threat level.

Security Check Tool

That login IP looks suspicious, doesn't it? Your teammates reached out to Susan, and she confirmed she did not log in to the company VPN. She also mentioned that while using a public Wi-Fi hotspot at a cafe, she was suddenly prompted to install a "security check" tool, which she did. The host telemetry reveals a suspicious binary with the hash b8e02f2bc0ffb42e8cf28e37a26d8d825f639079bf6d948f8debab6440ee5630. Can you help us figure out what this binary exactly does and answer the remaining questions?
