Abstract
Techniques for malicious content detection using memory dump are described herein. According to one embodiment, a monitoring module is configured to monitor activities of a malicious content suspect executed within a sandboxed operating environment. In response to detection of one or more predetermined events triggered by the malicious content suspect, a memory dump module is configured to generate a memory dump of the malicious content suspect. An analysis module is configured to analyze the memory dump to determine whether the malicious content suspect should be declared as malicious based on a set of one or more rules.
