What is Backdoor?

Backdoor.Win32.Rbot.j is a type of Backdoor.

Backdoor is a group of Trojans threats that spread through a LAN, Internet, security holes and sometimes with other malware. These threats usually purport to be the remote administration toolkits and function in the same manner as the authorized remote administration programs, in order to take control of an infected machine and execute commands. This makes them very easy to hide from Windows and the user. This makes them hide deeply in Windows, and users with little computer expertise can hardly detect and find them.

Backdoor functions can include but not limited to:

change the Internet parameters
redirect HTTP traffic
steal game and application license keys
steal passwords and personal information
remove and change files
execute programs
reboot and shutdown computer

Unlike an authorized administration tool, a backdoor is downloaded and installed onto the system without the permission of the user. Once the backdoor is installed, it steals password and other information from the victim PC, switches off security programs, lowers security settings and even slows down PC performance.
