My entire home network went down for a day after a phishing email got my dad

He clicked a link in an email that looked like it was from our ISP, and it installed something nasty. I spent the next 24 hours resetting passwords and isolating every device. Anyone have a good script or tool for running a basic network audit after something like this?

Ugh that's brutal. My aunt did the same thing and we found weird crypto miners on three different laptops.

My buddy's mom had that happen, her whole computer just ran slow until we found a hidden mining script.
