Rootkits

Find out why you should beware rootkits on your systems. Rootkits typically install modified operating system files such as “ls.exe” (the UNIX list files command) to conceal the presence of hacking tools from naive system administrators. The tools themselves give hackers complete control of a compromised system and often provide backdoors to the system in case the primary mode of entry is blocked.
