   Meet 'Rakshasa,' The Malware Infection Designed To Be Undetectable And Incurable
   
   Researcher Jonathan Brossard has innovated a uniquely nasty coding trick: A strain of malware that’s nearly impossible to disinfect.
   
   At the Black Hat security conference in Las Vegas Thursday, Brossard plans to present a paper (PDF here) on “Rakshasa,” a piece of proof-of-concept malware that aims to be a “permanent backdoor” in a PC, one that’s very difficult to detect, and even harder to remove.
   
   Nothing to alarmed at, unless hardware manufacturer's decide to deliberately want to create a backdoor in PCs .....

   Good study, DMJ. Rather comprehensive.
   Though of course, best way would be to "grow your own veggies". Something my team is working on!
   Wish us luck!
