Wow... this video is awesome! Normally I will think that the information from RAM is wiped out the moment power is cut from the computer. But this research shows otherwise! The information from RAM is kept from seconds to a few minutes and if the temperature is cooled down by using simple tools, the information can be kept for up to 10 minutes! Wow.. this means that if the RAM is being transferred to another computer, then the contents can be read... encryption keys can be stolen and private information is no longer private... or like what this research shows... RAM reading software can be developed and usedto decrypt the information just like that... Scary thought.
How then to protect your information that is stored in computers? Make sure it is not stolen physically!
