Rootkit Hunter - Cool software!

Filed under: — Mark @ 10:03 am

Rootkit Hunter: This is a very useful tool to make sure your non-windows machine is free of the “rootkits” that hackers love to add to your vulnerable box. Some of the tests include: – MD5 hash compare- Look for default files used by rootkits- Wrong file permissions for binaries- Look for suspected strings in LKM and KLD modules- Look for hidden files- Optional scan within plaintext and binary files
