Whether you want to learn how to develop a robust, full-featured rootkit
or you're looking for effective ways to prevent one from being installed
on your network, this hands-on resource provides you with the tools
you'll need. Expert developer Ric Vieler walks you through all of the
capabilities of rootkits, the technology they use, steps for developing
and testing them, and the detection methods to impede their
distribution. This book provides the detailed, step-by-step instructions
and examples required to produce full-featured, robust rootkits.
Presented in modular sections, source code from each chapter can be used
separately or together to produce highlyspecific functionality. In
addition, Vieler details the loading, configuration, and control
techniques used to deploy rootkits. All ancillary software is fully
detailed with supporting source code and links to the compilers,
utilities, and scripts necessary to build and run every example
provided. What you will learn from this book:
- Complete coverage of all major rootkit technologies: kernel hooks,
process injection, I/O filtering, I/O control, memory management,
process synchronization, TDI communication, network filtering, email
filtering, key logging, process hiding, device driver hiding, registry
key hiding, directory hiding and more
- Complete coverage of the compilers, kits, utilities, and tools
required to develop robust rootkits
- Techniques for protecting your system by detecting a rootkit before
it's installed
