I’m unable to find the “Yara Analyzer” among the list of ingest modules & I also don’t seem to have the “Yara Rule Set” tab under “Options”

Has anyone else had this issue or know how to fix it?

The YARA module is new in the 4.18 release, which should be out in the next week or so.

Hi @apriestman is there an update on the 4.18 release, as I need to run yara against some .vmdk files?
