Study on Pagefile.sys in Windows System

Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2014, Vol 16, Issue 2

Abstract

Pagefile.sys is a file that is used by Microsoft Windows to store frames of memory that do not currently fit into physical memory. It means Windows uses a page file to store data that can’t be held by your computer’s random-access memory when it fills up. Analysis of the Pagefile.sys gives the information of which events were done on PC. Analysis of Pagefile.sys can give the sensitive information such as User Ids, Passwords, Hidden Processes, Download info, Search Activity of Browser etc. This Paper represents various approaches and tools used to capture and analyze data from Pagefile.sys.
