Why are live acquisitions becoming a necessity, and why don't live acquisitions follow typical forensics procedures??

What will be an ideal response?


Live acquisitions, which are performed before taking a system offline, are becoming a necessity due to the possibility that attacks might leave footprints only in running processes or RAM; for example, some malware disappears after a system is restarted. In addition, information in RAM is lost after you turn off a suspect system. However, after you do a live acquisition, information on the system has changed because your actions affect RAM and running processes, which also means the information can't be reproduced.
