Re: .NET Framework Rootkits

Thank you (sorry for the delay in responding).

Your quote clearly shows a difference I have with the author in terms of perspective. Farting around with .NET when you have admin privileges on a machine is counter-productive. IMO, any modifications made to the framework from an external (to the framework) point highlights commercial/secure distribution issues in a hostile administrative environment.

Reminds me of a time when a company asked me how they could secure a database from their DBA whom they didn't trust (but apparently didn't want to fire), which for me was another reminder that a lot of security problems are not technical, but are in fact HR problems (if someone could tell me what HR does anymore I'd certainly appreciate it). For another example isn't it funny that the lowest paid, least respected employee is usually the one with all the keys and the least supervision (ie your cleaning staff)?

At some point in time trust in employees isn't optional so selecting who those employees are shouldn't be a glossed over or outsourced issue.
