My question is a continuation of the question here.

It has been shown that AES keys can be identified in memory1AES keys that are in use can be identified in memory. This identification relies on discovering expected round keys in memory that are contained within the key schedulekey schedule.

My question is: can we, by extension, assume that the same technique, at least theoretically, can be used to extract SerpentSerpent and TwofishTwofish keys from memory since they both have a key schedule2key schedule as well??

Is it possible to identify a Serpent encryption key in memory?
