Bonus Question: What is the web browser that the actor is using?


Answer:

The webshell is likely called "default.aspx". Default web pages don't appear in IIS logs, instead they just show their path.

The actor is using Edge 103 on Windows 10, this can be found by pasting the user agent into a user agent lookup.
