For CTI analysts

  • Captures FTP credential and file-oriented probing.

Primary signals you can expect (when logging is wired): FTP auth and file commands.

For blue teams / detection engineering

  • Prefer disposable storage; monitor uploads for malware drops if enabled.

Trust & limitations

  • This page is evaluation proof under UHBS 4.2.2 — not a certification or vendor ranking.
  • Prefer full/ artifacts over quick/ for operational decisions.
  • Re-run via TUTORIAL.md; environment notes in METHODOLOGY.md.
  • How to read modules: READING-UHQS.md
