# MemScan-EDR
> **Open-Source, Lightweight, Memory-Focused Windows Endpoint Detection & Response (EDR) Tool**
[](LICENSE)
[](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/)
[](https://www.microsoft.com/windows)
[](https://github.com/dotnet/wpf)
MemScan-EDR scans all running processes, inspects memory for shellcode/injection/C2 patterns, and uses AI (OpenAI / Claude / local models) to classify threats in real time. Built with C# WPF for zero-dependency deployment as a single `.exe` .

## Features
### Core Capabilities
| Capability | Description |
|---|---|
| **Process Enumeration** | Full process list with PID, name, path, parent tree, command line, digital signature, thread count, memory usage |
| **Memory Scanning** | `VirtualQueryEx` traversal of every committed region; detects RWX private memory, unbacked executable pages |
| **Signature Matching** | 12 built-in detection rules: NOP sled, CALL/POP EIP, ROR13 hash, CobaltStrike Beacon, Meterpreter, ReflectiveLoader, Mimikatz, etc. |
| **AI Threat Classification** | Multi-provider support (OpenAI-compatible / Claude / Ollama / LM Studio) + heuristic fallback engine |
| **CE-MCP Integration** | Auto-launch Cheat Engine MCP server for kernel-level memory operations |
| **Chinese / English UI** | One-click language toggle; all labels, buttons, and alerts switch instantly |
| **Single-File EXE** | `dotnet publish` produces a self-contained `MemScan-EDR.exe` — no .NET runtime needed on target |
### AI Providers
| Provider | Description | Base URL Example |
|---|---|---|
| **OpenAI-Compatible** | OpenAI / DeepSeek / Qwen / Zhipu / any OpenAI-format API | `https://api.openai.com/v1` |
| **Claude** | Anthropic Claude via Messages API | `https://api.anthropic.com` |
| **Local** | Ollama / LM Studio / vLLM / llama.cpp server | `http://127.0.0.1:11434` |
| **Heuristic** | Built-in rule engine (no API key needed) | N/A |
### Built-in Signatures
| Signature | Category | Severity |
|---|---|---|
| `SHELLCODE_NOP_SLED` | Shellcode | Medium |
| `SHELLCODE_GETEIP` | Shellcode | Medium |
| `SHELLCODE_ROR13` | Shellcode | Medium |
| `C2_COBALTSTRIKE` | C2 | High |
| `C2_METERPRETER` | C2 | Medium |
| `INJECTION_REFLECTIVE` | Injection | High |
| `INJECTION_CRT` | Injection | Medium |
| `INJECTION_VAE` | Injection | Medium |
| `MALWARE_MIMIKATZ` | Malware | High |
| `CRYPTO_MINER` | Crypto | High |
| `RANSOM_NOTE` | Malware | High |
| `PS_DOWNLOAD` | Malware | Medium |

## Architecture
```
TitleBar ── Window Chrome (Min/Max/Close, Language Toggle)
Sidebar ── Navigation (Dashboard / Processes / Scan / Settings)
Content ── 4 Views (WPF Grid Visibility switching)
Services:
ProcessCollector ── CreateToolhelp32Snapshot + WMI → ProcessInfo[]
MemoryScanner ── VirtualQueryEx + signature walk → SignatureMatch[]
AIAnalyzer ── HTTP → OpenAI/Claude/Ollama API → ScanResult
CeMcpManager ── Process.Start → python server.py
```
Data flow:
```
[Start Scan] → ProcessCollector.CollectAll()
→ for each ProcessInfo:
→ MemoryScanner.ScanProcess() → signature matches
→ MemoryScanner.GetSuspiciousRegions() → RWX private regions
→ QuickPreScore() — skip API if score < 0.05
→ AIAnalyzer.AnalyzeProcessAsync() → ScanResult
→ Update DataGrid / Stats in real-time via IProgress< >
```

## Quick Start
### Prerequisites
- Windows 10 / 11 (x64)
- [.NET 8 SDK ](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet/8.0 )
- Administrator privileges (for memory scanning)
### Build
```powershell
git clone https://github.com/Huang-158/MemScan-EDR.git
cd MemScan-EDR\src-csharp
dotnet build MemScanEDR.sln
dotnet publish MemScanEDR\MemScanEDR.csproj -c Release -r win-x64 --self-contained true -p:PublishSingleFile=true -o publish
.\publish\MemScan-EDR.exe
```
Or:
```powershell
.\scripts\build_csharp.bat
```
### CE-MCP Setup (Optional)
1. Place [ce-mcp-server ](https://github.com/Huang-158/ce-mcp-server ) next to the project
2. Or configure the path in Settings → CE-MCP Server Path
3. Set to `disabled` to run without CE-MCP
### AI Configuration
1. Select provider: Heuristic / OpenAI-Compatible / Claude / Local
2. Enter API Base URL
3. Enter API Key (stored locally)
4. Enter Model name
5. Click Save

## How AI Analysis Works
1. **Pre-filter** : Clean processes (signed, system path, no RWX, no sig matches) → `Safe` , skip API
2. **Structured Prompt** : Each process gets metadata, connections, signatures, suspicious regions
3. **Safe-by-Default** : AI told >95% are benign; needs multiple concurring indicators
4. **Heuristic Fallback** : Conservative thresholds (≥0.50 suspicious, ≥0.75 high) when API is down
