ABSTRACT:
Rootkits can be hard to detect and even harder to remove. But what exactly is a rootkit? And how do you know when you have one? This podcast provides an overview of the latest security issue to plague security administrators and computer users. Get the facts about rootkits, how to prevent them and what to do if you've been infected.
Did you know that not all rootkits are bad? This podcast explores this and other facts and myths surrounding rootkits. You'll also get recommendations and practical steps to prevent and eliminate them if you do become infected. You'll also hear from Gerhard Eschelbeck, chief technology officer and senior vice president of engineering at Webroot Software, about what his company is doing to further the understanding of rootkits and protect its users from infection.
