Malware Forensics

Malware Forensics: Investigating and Analyzing Malicious Code covers the emerging and evolving field of "live forensics," where the system is shut down. Unlike other forensic texts that discuss "live forensics" on the basis of identifying and capturing malicious code and evidence of its effect on the compromised system.
Malware Forensics: Investigating and Analyzing Malicious Code also devotes a vast array of problems with both the Windows and Linux platforms. This book provides information about forensics and memory processes.
Prior to this book, competing texts has a malicious code, is an analyzing malicious code. Conversely, Malware Forensics: Investigating and Analyzing Malicious Code emphasizes the practical "how-to" aspect of malicious code investigation; and static code analysis (such as file identification and profiling, strings discovery, armoring / packing detection, disassembling, debugging), and more.
