RAPIER Forensic Toolkit

We will be integrating Helios into RAPIER (Rapid Assessment & Potential Incident Examination Report), a forensic first response toolkit for information gathering. This is useful during investigation of possible security breaches. RAPIER is a branch of the Intel RPIER tool that is used for obtaining volatile information from systems. Helios will provide the rootkit detection capabilities of the tool along with RootkitRevealer.

We are delighted at this opportunity to be working alongside Joe Schwendt of Intel to work on a command line version of the tool that can seamlessly work with the existing framework.
