This signature detects backdoor communications from Hacker Defender, a rootkit tool that installs in the kernal of multiple Windows versions. Attackers can use this tool to evade host-based firewall, anti-virus, IDS, and IPS systems.
Hacker Defender opens up a backdoor on an infected system allowing remote shell access.
