# Executive Summary This technical blog details how memory scanners examine Windows process memory to detect suspicious attributes (e.g., PAGE_EXECUTE_READWRITE and MZ headers in MEM_PRIVATE regions), demonstrates enumeration and detection code (VirtualQueryEx, ReadProcessMemory), and uses a Maelstrom C2 proof-of-concept implant to show practical detections and logging examples for further analysis.
