Contents of RAM are written into the sleepimage file when the computer is put to sleep.
Numerous swap files may be found in the /var/vm/ directory with the naming convention of swapfile# (swapfile0, swapfile1, swapfile2, etc.)
These artefacts are collected under the ma4n6 project, aiming at being single point of collection for OSX artifacts from where such locations are later shared via:
– yaml library
– ForensicsWiki.org
– ForensicsArtifacts.com
So that the effort is made only once, and the output reused everywhere.
