I was doing some research on TrendMicro for a student and accidentally fell on this hidden new tool! RUBotted is a new, free botnet (zombie) detection and removal tool in Beta from TrendMicro.
In my PC security course, I teach my students how to detect zombies and botnets but this tool makes it a snap!
I just downloaded the small file and installation went 1 - 2 - 3!
I was relieved when the installation completion announced that: NO BOTNETS FOUND!
It also runs quietly in the background (systray) and doesn’t appear to be using any huge amount of resources. In fact, I don’t even notice a difference in my system performance.
The requirements to install this new tool is minimal so even if you don’t have the latest and greatest PC or processor, check this out!
Kudo’s to TrendMicro for creating a great new Botnet (Zombie) detection and removal tool! And FREE!
