  3. EU Motivation • Memory Analysis becomes more and more important: • Memory resident malware • Disk-less clients • Persistent Disk Encryption • To do proper analysis memory must be acquired forensically sound • Correctness • captured value at address X must represent the value in memory at address X • Atomicity • Integrity 3/28 2016-30-03 | Michael Gruhn | FAU i1 | ramatom
