ssm-acquire is a Python module that orchestrates content acquisitions and analysis through Amazon Systems Manager (SSM). The tool enables remote forensic data collection from Linux instances running the Amazon SSM Agent. Key capabilities include: - Memory acquisition from Linux instances directly to S3 buckets using SSM - Instance interrogation for top-10 indicators of compromise (IOCs) using OSQuery - Memory sample analysis on target machines using Docker containers - Rekall profile creation using instances as build targets The module leverages Amazon's SSM infrastructure to perform remote forensic operations without requiring direct access to target systems. It supports automated workflows for memory dumping, IOC detection, and forensic analysis in cloud environments. ssm-acquire is distributed as free software under the MPL 2.0 License and is currently in pre-release status.
