ATT SMS record analysis
I've been asked to provide some analysis of SMS records which were subpoenaed from the carrier but am having a little trouble resolving a few things. There are several messages from a two digit phone number and several instances where two or three messages were sent by the phone at the exact same time (down to the second). It appears to me that the messages sent at the same time were likely long messages broken up into 2 or 3 messages due to character limits, but I can't really come up with anything that would allow a two digit phone number to deliver messages. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I often find that those records reflect carrier services, like paying a bill, checking data plan current usage, and messages regarding the account.

If you received this data in a subpoena return, there should be a document explaining these numbers. When in doubt, I usually call the division that supplied the records.

Could they be something that came from AT&T?

Is it from a service? or is it a conversation?

Here's someone asking AT&T the same question about messages on their bill. And AT&T providing stellar customer service, too.

Disables the Windows Platform Binary Table (WPBT) in your firmware. This program use a non-permenant, non-destructive method to remove the table from system memory, so it should be executed every time the computer is rebooted before Windows bootloader starts. - sophisticated UEFI implant mitigation

This would be such a pain in the ass to deploy on one machine, let alone an entire enterprise

>Because this feature provides the ability to persistently execute system software in the context of Windows, it becomes critical that WPBT-based solutions are as secure as possible and do not expose Windows users to exploitable conditions. In particular, WPBT solutions must not include malware (i.e., malicious software or unwanted software installed without adequate user consent).

Basically this is a catch-22 situation. This tablet could be used for legitimate purposes like loading antitheft software OR it could be used to load malware persistently

Compromised Linux VM for DF training?
Does anyone have a vmdk of a compromised Linux host (perhaps from a Honeypot?) they'd be willing to share? I'd like to have my blue team try their hand at manual forensics as a table-top / Forensics Capture-the-Flag exercise

Plans:
\- Have them import it into Virtualbox (they all use Ubuntu as their workstations)
\- Browse around the host and see what they can find manually first
\- Utilize something like Plaso / log2timeline and import it into a log tool like Splunk

Not exactly what you are looking for but I was just at a competition last week and it had some forensic CTFs. Found them here, might be what you are interested in.

Getting Started Reverse Engineering Bare Metal Kernel Images - (Part 1/Setup) | This is a series, more will be released soon.
๐Ÿ—ฃragnarsecurity

Arent all kernels bare metal kernels? Iv not seen one that is specifically designed to run in a VM. I dont doubt that one may exist, but ive never seen one.
๐Ÿ‘คAllenKll

Hey man, good write up :)

Can I ask what do you refer to as a "kernel"? In my experience, kernel is generally only used to refer to a component of an OS.

I'd generally describe a bare metal firmware as having no kernel. And the built application is just a binary, or a firmware image.
