MikroTik RouterOS utilizes a proprietary binary format for its configuration backup files, identified by the .backup extension. Unlike plain-text exports ( .rsc files), these binaries store the complete system configuration, including sensitive data such as passwords and keys. For years, this format was considered a "black box," parseable only by the RouterOS proprietary kernel. However, advancements in reverse engineering have led to the development of tools capable of decrypting and parsing these files. This paper provides a detailed technical analysis of the .backup file structure, the encryption mechanisms employed (specifically in RouterOS v6 and v7), and the methodologies for opening and extracting data from these files for forensic and recovery purposes. : A readable script he could have opened
