SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: One major challenge facing digital forensics 
practitioners is the complicated task of acquiring an understanding of 
the digital data residing in electronic devices. Currently, this task 
requires significant experience and background to aggregate the data 
their tools provide from the digital artifacts. Most of the tools 
available present their results in text files or tree lists. It is up 
to the practitioner to mentally capture a global understanding of the 
state of the device at the time of seizure and find the items of 
evidentiary interest.
    The Memory Visualization software applies Information Visualization

techniques to improve the analysis of digital forensic evidence from 
Operating System memory captures. This visualization tool presents both 
global and local views of the evidence based on user interactions with 
the graphics. The visualization also maintains connection to the data 
behind the visualization so that the practitioner can verify manually. 
The resulting visualizations provide the necessary details for 
verifying digital artifacts and assists in locating additional items of 
relevance.
    This notice is pursuant to the provisions of Section 801 of Public 
Law 113-66 (2014 National Defense Authorization Act).

Acting Air Force Federal Register Liaison Officer.
