Additional memory forensic using Volatility

Now after we dump the memory, we need to do some forensics on it. The tool we will use is called Volatility Framework. It can extract digital artifacts from volatile memory (RAM) dumps. Volatility can analyze RAM dumps from 32-bit and 64-bit Windows, Linux, Mac OS, and Android systems.

1. Download the latest Volatility available.
2. After you finish downloading the file, you have to extract the files into a folder:

   $ tar -zxvf volatility-2.2.tar.gz

3. Change the directory to volatility-2.2:

   $ cd volatility-2.2/
   $ ls
   

   Our memory analysis will be using the vol.py file.
