We are looking forward to another year of innovative open source research!

The purpose of the contest is to encourage open memory forensics research and development. It is a great opportunity for students to become familiar with memory forensics, develop a master's thesis or PhD project, as well as gain experience that will be very desirable by future employers. For those already in the field, submitting to the contest is a great way to gain experience and visibility in the memory forensics community. After the contest is over we promote the work in our conference presentations, blogs, and social media.
