Administrators Marcos 5,092 Posted September 18, 2020 Administrators Share Posted September 18, 2020 It's a base64-encoded string, however, after decoding you'll get just an unreadable data string. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ESET Moderators Aryeh Goretsky 380 Posted September 18, 2020 ESET Moderators Share Posted September 18, 2020 Hello, It looks like base64, but I get garbage when I decrypt it. Is any more information available about the source of the string, or context in which it occurs/was found? Regards, Aryeh Goretsky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

File Info • MIME type: application/octet-stream FYI - https://kb.iu.edu/d/agtj Appears the best that can be done is to create an application.bin file. Which is basically worthless since it needs a specific app to read it. As noted in the linked Indiana Univ. article, this file is most likely an e-mail attachment and identity can be established via: Quote If the attachment has a filename extension associated with it, you may be able to tell what kind of file it is. A .exe extension, for example, indicates it is a Windows or DOS program (executable), while a file ending in .doc is probably meant to be opened in Microsoft Word.
