Introduction
In this video walk-through, we covered navigating directories and searching through files with Powershell. This was part of Day 20 of Advent of Cyber 2.
Someone is mischievous at The Best Festival Company. The contents within the stockings have been removed. A clue was left in one of the stockings that hints that the contents have been hidden within Elfstation1. McEager moves quickly and attempts to RDP into the machine. Yikes! He is unable to log in.
