Documents are the most common vectors for malware attacks due to their universal use in both personal and professional settings. They're not just tools for writing reports or creating presentations; they've become the gateway through which cyber threats enter and compromise systems. Malware authors often exploit this by embedding scripts in documents that download a second stage of payload, which can range from ransomware to remote access tools, and more.

• Practical Lab Exercises: With a focus on real-world application, you'll engage in exercises that will solidify your understanding and proficiency.
