Rootkit, the thing that gives you admin access without anyone knowing? That's definitely A, the one that avoids detection.

Rootkit, the tool that lets you take root on someone else's system? Gotta be A, the one that keeps the attacker in charge.

I'm not sure, but I think it's A) as well. It makes sense for attackers to use rootkits for that purpose.

Rootkit, huh? That's the one that makes your system root-lessly, right? I'll have to go with C on this one.

I agree with Verdell. Rootkits are definitely used to maintain control without being detected.

A rootkit? Isn't that what they use to make your computer run like a rocket? I'll go with A, sounds like the one that keeps the bad guys in control.
