Abstract:
A device may receive a password-protected file to be accessed for analysis. The device may identify a contextual term, associated with the password-protected file, to be used as a password to attempt to access the password-protected file. The contextual term may be identified based on at least one of: metadata associated with the password-protected file, metadata associated with a source from which the password-protected file is received, or text associated with the source from which the password-protected file is received. The device may apply the contextual term as the password to attempt to access the password-protected file.
