๐Ÿง ๐Ÿ’ป TRIVIA FRIDAY #2: Crack the Code! ๐Ÿ”

Question: While reviewing a security alert, an analyst discovers a suspicious automated script running on a server. Hidden inside the script is a scrambled string of text that looks like this: Q3liZXJNb250aDIwMjY=. The analyst notices it ends with an equal sign ("="), a classic indicator of Base64 encoding. When they decode this string to reveal the hidden command, what does it actually say?
