Re: tools to run on compromised linux box

Hello,
First let us know whether the said system is still up and running or not.

If it is up its good for live analysis. You may come to know what exactly happening on the system. You may use any live CD and boot in parallel and try to find out what ports are listening, run nessus or other vulnerability scanners, check what files are open for what ports etc..

If you have earlier installed any integrity checker on the said system you may check it also.

If the system id down you have to use dead analysis tools like sleuthkit and autopsy etc.

Thanks,
Mukesh
