ABSTRACT:
A device and method for extracting data stored in a volatile memory are provided. In particular, a memory-data extracting device and method for ensuring integrity of data extracted from a volatile memory installed in a computer are provided. A memory-data extracting module extracts data stored in a memory. A module loader loads the memory-data extracting module in a kernel region of the memory and sets a priority of the loaded memory-data extracting module to be higher than priorities of kernel processors loaded in the memory. Task switching can be prevented in the course of extracting memory data by loading a process for extracting memory data in a kernel region and setting a priority of the loaded process to be higher than priorities of other kernel processes, thereby ensuring the integrity of data extracted from a non-volatile memory.
