If the Windows session is hibernated while Wanacrypt is encrypting, or as soon as the ransom message appears, would hiberfil.sys possibly contain the primes and be analyzable offline?

I guess that would be possible. Maybe using volatility to extract the public key and the memory of the wcry process to search for the primes would be an option. I've never tried that thought!
