Description-en: tool for locating AES keys in a captured memory image
This program illustrates automatic techniques for locating 128-bit and
256-bit AES keys in a captured memory image.
.
The program uses various algorithms and also performs a simple entropy
test to filter out blocks that are not keys. It counts the number of
repeated bytes and skips blocks that have too many repeats.
.
This method works even if several bits of the key schedule have been
corrupted due to memory decay.
.
This package is useful to several activities, as forensics investigations.
