Bruce’s strategy of sending one character at a time and measuring the time it takes for the device to complete the password authentication process is characteristic of a side-channel attack. In side-channel attacks, attackers exploit information leaked during the execution of cryptographic algorithms or other security protocols. In this case, the timing information provides clues about the correct characters in the password.

Sarah employed the Logical acquisition technique in the given scenario. Logical acquisition involves selectively extracting specific files, folders, or data from a device, bypassing the need for a full disk image. It is useful when traditional imaging methods fail due to compatibility issues or other constraints1. In this case, Sarah successfully imaged the data using an alternative approach, focusing on specific data rather than creating a bit-stream image of the entire drive. The logical acquisition method allowed her to work around the limitations posed by the outdated suspect drive version1.

The scenario's focus on extracting strings from a suspect system for malware analysis aligns with the functionality of tools like ResourcesExtract:

• ResourcesExtract's Purpose: It's designed to extract specific resources, including strings, from executables and other file types. This is crucial for static malware analysis.
• String Search and Analysis: Finding and analyzing embedded strings can reveal malicious code behavior, function calls, and other clues about the malware's intent.
