Abstract
A hardware-assisted security system for networked computers can detect, prevent, and mitigate rootkits. The solution relies upon an add-on card that monitors the system, alerting administrators when malicious changes are made to a system. The technical detail lies in the techniques needed to detect rootkits, preventing rootkits when possible, and granting administration of protected systems. A beneficial side-effect of the solution is that it allows many other security features, like system auditing, forensic capabilities to determine what happened after an attack, and hardware lock-down of important system resources.
