Challenge Name: Ziplocked, You Rock!
Category: Cryptography
We recovered this seemingly benign zip file from the computer of a known cybercriminal.
It seems impossible to open without the password, but we need to get inside. We believe that the criminal may have been trying to hide data inside of the archive so that they can elude authorities.
Interestingly, despite the advanced nature of this criminal, the other passwords we recovered on their machine could easily be found on a common password list. Maybe this archive uses a similarly weak password.
Download the zip file and do what you can and try to open it. We think important data is inside.
