A Remote Administration Tool is a special kind of hacker spyware, used for remote access and control of other peopleâ€™s computers. The attacker infects the PC via the e-mail or File and Print Sharing. A â€œserverâ€? allows him to connect via a â€œclientâ€? on his own machine. The functions of a RAT may vary, depending on the needs of the hacker. Some RATs canâ€™t really harm your PC and the only purpose they were made for is hooliganism. But some versions can steal vital information, delete files and even crash your system.
