Proof of Concept<br />

• Recreate the Task Manger from a <strong>RAM</strong><br />

copy<br />

– Look for structures that might have been<br />

processes<br />

• Look for the ‘signature’ of a process<br />

• Discard structures that don’t meet a certain<br />

threshold (which can actually be quite stringent)<br />

• Rules vs recommendations<br />

– Brute force scan: Don’t trust linked list, active<br />

process marker, etc<br />

– Works on an image, dmp style dump,<br />

vmware mem file, etc<br />

– I unimaginatively call this “Process Locator”<br />

or procloc for the easier to type abbreviation<br />
