Memory-only malware leaves no trace on the file system and is commonly used by threat actors ranging from criminal organizations to ransomware operators to APT groups. To detect such malware, memory forensics must be performed to deeply examine the state of a potential victim system. If your organization isn't performing memory forensics then you are missing the malware that actually matters!
