Check Your System For Rootkits

There are however scanners you can install which will help. Below I will show you how to
install and run these scans
Install RKHunter
Run RKHunter Scanner
You need to update then check for root kits, you can do this via 3 commands:
The scan can take a little while as it has to look at all of the files on your /
partition. As it scans it will output any findings or warnings. A finding is bad
but not all warnings are bad, most are false positives but you need to look into
them just to be on the safe side
Install CHKRootkit
Run CHKRootkit
Like the rkhunter scan it can take a little while as it has to look at all of the files on your /
partition. As it scans it will output any findings or warnings. A finding is bad
but not all warnings are bad, most are false positives but you need to look into
them just to be on the safe side
