If you are working with this file for a cybersecurity course (such as at Georgia Tech) or a professional investigation, you can develop a "deep report" by following these standard forensic triage steps: 1. Initial Metadata Collection Calculate the MD5 and SHA-256 hashes

Open the archive in a safe, isolated environment (such as a Virtual Machine) to examine its contents without executing them.
