[Crypto] About Ebola Virus key

HTB Content Challenges

Hi,

I have solved the ebola virus in unintended way and I wanted to know the intended way. There’s a key.txt file in the challenge given by the author and I know what is the content. I tried decoding it or using other techniques like Not Art technique to get something valuable but nothing.

Maybe there’s someone here in the forums who solved it using key.txt. I really wanna know about it.

Best,
Cat

@CatrionaGray when I solved it the way you did I reached out to the creator and he explained the key way of doing. It is worth looking into as it is very interesting way to encrypt things. If you can’t get a hold of him just PM me and I’ll tell the intended way.
