As indicated in the following image, an analyst runs the dir and more commands. What can the analyst conclude about Judges.txt?

The 35-byte value visible in the output reflects the size of the ADS stream itself, not an independent standalone file - it does not indicate Judges.txt is a normal 35-byte file.

Files are not encoded 'by' other files; Quarterly_Results.txt is the host file that contains the ADS named Judges.txt, not an encoder.

FAT (File Allocation Table) partitions do not support Alternate Data Streams - ADS is an NTFS-exclusive feature, so a FAT partition conclusion is technically impossible in this context.

NTFS Alternate Data Streams allow additional named data streams to be attached to a file without appearing in normal 'dir' output. The 'dir /r' flag exposes ADS entries, and the 'more' command can read them by referencing the stream syntax (e.g., file.txt:Judges.txt). This is a common hiding technique used by attackers to conceal data or malicious payloads inside legitimate-looking files.
