Description
RogueKillerCMD is the command line version of RogueKiller (now called Adlice Protect), an anti-malware software designed to detect and remove threats such as rootkits, malicious processes, malware, spyware, trojans, and other forms of unwanted software that can compromise the security of a Windows system. The CMD version is intended for advanced users, system administrators, and IT professionals who prefer or need automation and control via scripts or terminal.
Key features of RogueKillerCMD:
- Advanced Threat Detection:
- Identifies and removes rootkits, which are malware that hide deeply in the system.
- Detects malicious processes, services, drivers, and compromised registry entries.
- Checks for changes in the MBR (Master Boot Record), DNS, hosts, and proxy settings.
- Command Line Execution:
- Allows the execution of scans and removals via commands in the terminal (Command Prompt or PowerShell).
- Ideal for use in automation scripts, scheduled tasks, or environments where the graphical interface is impractical.
- Operation Modes:
- Scan: Scans the system for threats, generating detailed reports.
- Removal: Eliminates detected threats, with options to configure the level of intervention.
- Repair: Corrects system settings that have been changed by malware, such as DNS redirects or malicious proxies.
- Portability:
- Does not require installation (portable), can be run directly from a USB device or local folder.
- Compatible with all versions of Windows, from XP to Windows 11 (32 and 64 bits).
- Reports and Logs:
- Generates detailed logs in text or JSON format, useful for auditing and later analysis.
- Can be configured to export reports to specific directories.
- Use in Corporate Environments:
- Supports advanced parameters for integration with security management systems or SIEM.
- Allows silent execution (without user interaction) for use on servers or workstations.
