rootkit▌

Analyzes bootkit and advanced rootkit malware that infects the Master Boot Record (MBR), Volume Boot Record (VBR), or UEFI firmware to gain persistence below the operating system. Covers boot sector analysis, UEFI module inspection, and anti-rootkit detection techniques. Activates for requests involving bootkit analysis, MBR malware investigation, UEFI persistence analysis, or pre-OS malware detection.

Detect kernel-level rootkits in Linux memory dumps using Volatility3 linux plugins (check_syscall, lsmod, hidden_modules), rkhunter system scanning, and /proc vs /sys discrepancy analysis to identify hooked syscalls, hidden kernel modules, and tampered system structures.

Detects rootkit presence on compromised systems by identifying hidden processes, hooked system calls, modified kernel structures, hidden files, and covert network connections using memory forensics, cross-view detection, and integrity checking techniques. Activates for requests involving rootkit detection, hidden process discovery, kernel integrity checking, or system call hook analysis.
