Designing BSD Rootkits introduces the fundamentals of programming and

developing rootkits under the FreeBSD operating system. In addition to

explaining rootkits and rootkit writing, the book aims to inspire

readers to explore the FreeBSD kernel and gain a better understanding of

the kernel and the FreeBSD operating system itself. Unlike titles on

exploit writing or how to gain root access to a system, Designing BSD

Rootkits focuses on maintaining root access long after gaining access to

a computer. Written in a friendly, accessible style and sprinkled with

geek humor and pop culture references, the author favors a "learn by

example" approach that assumes no prior kernel hacking experience.
