As you can observe, in Step 1, we copied several YARA rules. The first rule checks the magic numbers of a file to see if they match those of a PDF. The other two rules are trivial rules—one that matches every file, and one that matches no file. Then, in Step 2, we used the YARA program to run the rules against the target file. We saw from a printout that the file matched some rules but not others, as expected from an effective YARA ruleset.
