When investigating possible malware from a workstation memory, the process off capturing and analyzing volatile data is the key to unlocking important evidence. While some information may be stored securely on an encrypted volume, ongoing communications in social networks, open network communications, data on running processes, and chat rooms never ends up in the hard drive. Therefore, a responder should make a memory dump to acquire the digital evidence in addition to understanding that the evidence

DroidMat: Android Malware Detection through Manifest and API Calls Tracing Abstract—Recently, the threat of Android malware is spreading rapidly, especially those repackaged Android malware. Although understanding Android malware using dynamic analysis can provide a comprehensive view, it is still subjected to high cost in environment deployment and manual efforts in investigation. In this study, we propose a static feature-based mechanism to provide a static analyst paradigm for detecting the Android
