A rootkit is a type of malicious software that is activated each time your
system boots up. Rootkits are difficult to detect because they are activated
before your system's Operating System has completely booted up. A rootkit often
allows the installation of hidden files, processes, hidden user accounts, and
more in the systems OS. Rootkits are able to intercept data from terminals,
network connections, and the keyboard.
