Here is the brief write-up of the challenge — Angry Steve

This challenge falls under Forensic Category and is of Easy Difficulty level.

There is an attached jpg file given with the challenge that helps us to find the flag.It is mentioned that there is a text inside this file. So we have to use tools and find the text inside the file which may be possibly the flag.

Here we can try using strings command on the jpg file to find the hidden text.

So using string commands, we can simply get the flag inside it.
