MANDIANT Releases Memoryze™ Software

Oct 29, 2008
MANDIANT's free computer forensics tool helps incident responders find evil within live memory

MANDIANT Corporation, a provider of information security products and services, announced today the release of their newest software offering, MANDIANT Memoryze™. Product Engineer, Peter Silberman, a key contributor to Memoryze, introduced the product during his talk Full Process Reconstitution from Memory at the 2008 Hack In The Box Security Conference in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

Memoryze is a free memory analysis tool that can acquire physical memory from a Windows system and can also perform advanced analysis of live memory while a computer is running. It allows incident responders to quickly identify everything that is running on a computer and filter the output looking for evidence of compromise.

Jamie Butler, Agent Team Lead at MANDIANT said, “Memoryze is designed to catch the most sophisticated of threats. It analyzes physical memory and even parses the paging files – bypassing the operating system’s APIs. In the lab, we have shown that Memoryze can find memory resident-only shellcode, that does not exist on disk. If the attacker is there, Memoryze can pull the malicious code directly from memory, so our malware analysis team can begin their work.”
