rootkit functionality
Rootkit functionality refers to the capabilities and characteristics of a type of malicious software that is designed to conceal its presence on a computer system. Rootkits are able to hide themselves from detection by antivirus programs and other security tools, allowing them to remain installed on a system undetected. This enables them to carry out various unauthorized activities, such as spying on user activities, stealing sensitive information, and gaining unauthorized access to the system. Rootkit functionality can also include the ability to manipulate system processes, modify system files, and maintain persistence on the infected system.
