There are other ways to perform data collection, but currently only this approach is publicly available. RKPconsole is a userland program that can be used to analyse the collected information.RKProfiler LX checks the whole kernel code as well as different kernel data sections and cpu registers regarding possible modifications and hidden components: – Generic kernel code modification– Syscall table address modification– Syscall address modification– Syscall code modification– Interrupt handler address modification– Interrupt handler code modification – Page Fault Handler modification– Kernel symbol modification– SYSENTER register modification– Virtual File System function pointer modification – Hidden processes and threads– Hidden kernel modules Related content analysis The 5 types of cyber attack you're most likely to face Don't be distracted by the exploit of the week.
