Split Cipher
Ironwood Energy is investigating its inventory dashboard after two artifacts contain separate ciphertext fragments while a third records the transformation key and assembly order. Step in as the responder and follow the evidence.
Incident briefing
Scenario
You have been brought in to help Ironwood Energy investigate its inventory dashboard after two artifacts contain separate ciphertext fragments while a third records the transformation key and assembly order. The environment is intentionally vulnerable and isolated for this exercise.
Objective
Reassemble the ciphertext, reverse the transform, and use the recovered request context.
