Quick Malware Analysis: Revil ransomware

This is our last Quick Malware Analysis of 2021, so we're making it a fun one! 

We prepared a Windows VM with Sysmon and then downloaded Revil ransomware:
https://app.any.run/tasks/c6cd2f29-9068-4db3-85c2-176f2bbb4b80/

We captured the network traffic and system logs and then imported into Security Onion via so-import-pcap and so-import-evtx:

https://docs.securityonion.net/en/2.3/so-import-evtx.html

Below are some of the interesting Suricata alerts, Zeek logs, and session transcripts.
