You are investigating a Windows 10 workstation that exhibits slow performance and frequent pop-ups. The user reports that the system started acting strangely after installing a 'PDF Converter' from an email attachment. You suspect malware. You have captured a memory dump using FTK Imager and a network capture during the infection. In the memory dump, you find a suspicious process 'conhost.exe' running from a non-standard location (C:\Users\Public\Temp). The process has an open handle to a file named 'config.ini' in the same directory. The network capture shows periodic HTTPS connections to 'malicious.com' on port 443 from the workstation's IP. Using Volatility, you extract the process's command line: 'conhost.exe -hidden -log C:\Users\Public\Temp\output.log'. Which of the following is the BEST immediate course of action to contain the threat and preserve evidence?
