I am currently working on the “Try Hack Me” memory forensics challenge. Before engaging with this room, I assumed that only binary data would be present in memory, with all data stored in memory stacks and heaps being converted to binary. However, upon examining the memory dump, I noticed that the password appears in its pure string form, which contradicts my initial assumption. why ?
is that possible ? when this occur ? in Other language my question is why the Memory is fill with strings ? and why ?
this is the room link and other link that checked that have the password in the Memory .

I searched some things on Google and asked the AI GPT, but I did not understand why this occurs!
