Re: Anti-Rootkit app

I need to install an anti-rootkid

If I understand correctly, an intruder need to be superuser to be able to install a rootkit.

If our intruders has superuser privileges, they can tamper any anti-rootkit.

Is the main reason to install anti-rootkit we count the intruders are so dumb to look for one of port's anti-rootkit package before they do it's dirt work ?

Or I miss something important ?
