Memory Forensics is a subdiscipline of digital forensics that involves the systematic examination and analysis of a computing system's volatile memory to identify, extract, and interpret ephemeral evidence of malicious activity or system state, distinguishing it from other digital forensic methods by its focus on runtime data not persistently stored on disk.
