A.
a virus.
B.
a legitimate remote control software.
C.
a backdoor that takes the form of an installed program.
D.
an eavedropper.
E.
None of the choices.
Explanation:
A backdoor may take the form of an installed program (e.g., Back Orifice) or could be in the form of an existing
“”legitimate”” program, or executable file. A specific form of backdoors are rootkits, which replaces system
binaries and/or hooks into the function calls of the operating system to hide the presence of other programs,
users, services and open ports.
