What you'll do

You have a known C2 Domain that has infected your network.

  • You will create a DNS record and sinkhole all requests to this domain.
  • This will allow your analysts to identify which machines are in your environment and also protect your network by redirecting systems that attempt to contact this domain.
  • ⏱ About 60 minutes
