Demonstrating a method to bypass BitLocker encryption on Windows 11 by extracting full volume encryption keys (FVEK) from memory using the tool Memory-Dump-UEFI. The process involves creating a bootable USB device, forcing an abrupt system restart, and then dumping RAM to locate FVEK keys. The post also covers analyzing dump files for keys and methods to mitigate memory degradation during the dumping process.
