Today, I’m going to talk to you about a tool that should interest you if you’re a little paranoid (like me). It is aboutOpenArkun anti-rookit open source pour Windows.
But first, what is a rootkit?
Well basically, it’s a type of malware that hides in your system to do dirty things on the sly, like spy on you or open a back door to do even more nasty things. In short, it’s the kind of thing we could do without!
Fortunately, OpenArk is here to save our butts by detecting and getting rid of this notorious malware, all for free. It is still a software which is mainly aimed at advanced users, system admins and security expertsand who is able to scan your systemlooking for rootkits using different detection techniques, so if you’re super noob there will be a bit of a learning curve.
It updates regularly to be on top of the latest threats and can also help you analyze running processes, loaded drivers and kernel objects. And all this through a rather intuitive graphical interface.
But that’s not all since OpenArk also integrates tools for security experts and developerssuch as a disassembler or even a hexadecimal editor. For your information, the tool supports both architectures 32 bits et 64 bitsand is compatible with different Windows systems, from XP to 11
In short, it’s the perfect tool…
