Fileless Malware poses challenges for forensic analysts since the infected system often can't be shut down for a forensic analysis. Turning off the device would destroy forensic artifacts or evidence of the fileless malware. Therefore, a technique called Live Digital Forensics is applied to perform investigations on a running system. During these investigations, domain experts need to carefully decide what tools they want to deploy for their forensic analysis. In this paper we propose a visualization designed to support forensic experts in this decision-making process. Therefore, we follow a design methodology from the visualization domain to come up with a comprehensible design. Following this methodology, we start with identifying and defining the domain problem which the visualization should help to solve. We then translate this domain problem into an abstract description of the available data and user's tasks for the visualization. Finally, we transform these specifications into a visualization design for a Live Digital Forensics decision-support. A use case illustrates the benefits of the proposed method.
