Please see post and video here which explains how easy it is for the private keys to be exposed when using the Wallet: https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/86x2p7/many_popular_cryptocurrency_wallets_completely/

Can the memory content generated by the wallet be encrypted and mixed with random characters + flooding with decoys to prevent this from happening?
