Hooked on Linux: Rootkit Detection Engineering

This article examines techniques for detecting Linux rootkits, with emphasis on moving beyond static detection methods toward behavioral analysis. The piece is presented as the second installment in a series on rootkit detection engineering.

Why it matters: Linux administrators and security teams need practical approaches to identify rootkits that evade file-based signatures, making behavioral detection methods critical for protecting systems already in production environments.
