While forensic analysis has proven to be a valuable investigative tool in the field of computer security, utilizing anti-forensic technology makes it possible to maintain a covert operational foothold for extended periods, even in a high-security environment. Adopting an approach that favors full disclosure, the updated Second Edition of The Rootkit Arsenal presents the most accessible, timely, and complete coverage of forensic countermeasures. This book covers more topics, in greater depth, than any other currently available. In doing so the author forges through the murky back alleys of the Internet, shedding light on material that has traditionally been poorly documented, partially documented, or intentionally undocumented.The range of topics presented includes how to:-Evade post-mortem analysis-Frustrate attempts to reverse engineer your command & control modules-Defeat live incident response-Undermine the process of memory analysis-Modify subsystem internals to feed misinformation to the outside-Entrench your code in fortified regions of execution-Design and implement covert channels-Unearth new avenues of attack

Rootkits and Bootkits will teach you how to understand and counter sophisticated, advanced threats buried deep in a machine’s boot process or UEFI firmware.With the aid of numerous case studies and professional research from three of the world’s leading security experts, you’ll trace malware development over time from rootkits like TDL3 to present-day UEFI implants and examine how they infect a system, persist through reboot, and evade security software. As you inspect and dissect real malware, you’ll learn:· How Windows boots—including 32-bit, 64-bit, and UEFI mode—and where to find vulnerabilities· The details of boot process security mechanisms like Secure Boot, including an overview of Virtual Secure Mode (VSM) and Device Guard · Reverse engineering and forensic techniques for analyzing real malware, including bootkits like Rovnix/Carberp, Gapz, TDL4, and the infamous rootkits TDL3 and Festi· How to perform static and dynamic analysis using emulation and tools like Bochs and IDA Pro · How to better understand the delivery stage of threats against BIOS and UEFI firmware in order to create detection capabilities· How to use virtualization tools like VMware Workstation to reverse engineer bootkits and the Intel Chipsec tool to dig into forensic analysisCybercrime syndicates and malicious actors will continue to write ever more persistent and covert attacks, but the game is not lost. Explore the cutting edge of malware analysis with Rootkits and Bootkits. Covers boot processes for Windows 32-bit and 64-bit operating systems.

This book demonstrates how to modify a system at runtime to subvert a forensic live response. Readers will learn how to conceal their presence on a server, disable its security policies, sidestep group policy, maintain remote access, and covertly monitor system activity--all with the system administrator being none the wiser.

Though rootkits have a fairly negative image, they can be used for both good and evil. Designing BSD Rootkits arms you with the knowledge you need to write offensive rootkits, to defend against malicious ones, and to explore the FreeBSD kernel and operating system in the process.Organized as a tutorial, Designing BSD Rootkits will teach you the fundamentals of programming and developing rootkits under the FreeBSD operating system. Author Joseph Kong's goal is to make you smarter, not to teach you how to write exploits or launch attacks. You'll learn how to maintain root access long after gaining access to a computer and how to hack FreeBSD.Kongs liberal use of examples assumes no prior kernel-hacking experience but doesn't water down the information. All code is thoroughly described and analyzed, and each chapter contains at least one real-world application.Included:The fundamentals of FreeBSD kernel module programmingUsing call hooking to subvert the FreeBSD kernelDirectly manipulating the objects the kernel depends upon for its internal record-keepingPatching kernel code resident in main memory; in other words, altering the kernel's logic while it's still runningHow to defend against the attacks describedHack the FreeBSD kernel for yourself!

"A harrowing guide to where the bad guys hide, and how you can find them." --Dan Kaminsky, Director of Penetration Testing, IOActive "An amazing resource. It is timely, focused, and what we need to better understand and defend against one of the greatest cyber threats we face." --From the Foreword by Lance Spitzner, President of the Honeynet Project Don't let another machine become a zombie in the malware armyDefend against the ongoing wave of malware and rootkit assaults the failsafe Hacking Exposed way. Real-world case studies and examples reveal how today's hackers use readily available tools to infiltrate and hijack systems. Step-by-step countermeasures provide proven prevention techniques. Find out how to detect and eliminate malicious embedded code, block pop-ups and websites, prevent keylogging, and terminate rootkits. The latest intrusion detection, firewall, honeynet, antivirus, anti-rootkit, and anti-spyware technologies are covered in detail. Understand how malware infects, survives, and propagates across an enterpriseLearn how hackers use archivers, encryptors, and packers to obfuscate codeImplement effective intrusion detection and prevention proceduresDefend against keylogging, redirect, click fraud, and identity theft threatsDetect, kill, and remove virtual, user-mode, and kernel-mode rootkits Prevent malicious website, phishing, client-side, and embedded-code exploitsProtect hosts using the latest antivirus, pop-up blocker, and firewall softwareIdentify and terminate malicious processes using HIPS and NIPS
