| Description:
|
Rbot is the name of a family of remote access tools, also known as backdoors or worms, used by hackers to control a machine without the owner's knowledge.
This group of threats can spread through security exploits, networks, IRC (Internet Relay Chat) servers and sometimes with other malware. Once installed, the RAT allows the attacker to take control of a machinme remotely and execute commands. The machine can be used as a spam relay or to participate in a denial of service (DOS) attack. It can spread through networkked computers. Some variants of the worm cam steal passwords and other data from the infected machine, lower security settings and turn off antivirus programs.
Rbot.WindowsUpdate uses file names and registry keys made to look like valid Windows files to deceive victims into thinking they are normal.
