Hi Sumanthsv,
While your suggestion will produce acceptable result, it has unnecessary steps.
The use of cat is superfluous. AWK and sed can read from a file without the help of cat. i.e.
But also, AWK doesn't need the help of sed. i.e.
Pipes are great but not necessary here.
Still, AWK can do the job without that extra work of removing the blank in front, if we do:
Keep up the good work!
will search for the first occurrence of signature Base64; deleted everything before the colon-space; print; exit.
Subsequent occurrences of signature Base64 will be ignored.
BUG: if the signature contains colon-space it will be cut. But that shouldn't happen for the data you are using it with.

PS I should mentions that the Q in the sed command is a GNU extension and will not work with Unix sed.
