Abstract:
Technical solutions are described for generating a secured system snapshot of a system. An example computer-implemented method includes receiving an instruction to generate a system snapshot. The system snapshot captures data from a computer executable object loaded in a memory. The method also includes accessing metadata that is associated with the computer executable object from a mapping list. The method also includes capturing the secured system snapshot by. Capturing the secured system snapshot includes determining sensitivity of the computer executable object by comparing the metadata with a predetermined criteria, and excluding a capture of sensitive data from the computer executable object into the system snapshot in response to the metadata of the computer executable object matching the predetermined criteria. The method also includes storing the secured system snapshot.
