A rootkit is a collection of computer software, typically malicious, designed to enable access to a computer or areas of its software that would not otherwise be allowed (for example, to an unauthorized user) and often masks its existence or the existence of other software.

The term rootkit is a concatenation of "root" (the traditional name of the privileged account on Unix-like operating systems) and the word "kit" (which refers to the software components that implement the tool).

The term "rootkit" has negative connotations through its association with malware.

In computing, a firewall is a network security system that monitors and controls the incoming and outgoing network traffic based on predetermined security rules.

A firewall typically establishes a barrier between a trusted, secure internal network and another outside network, such as the Internet, that is assumed not to be secure or trusted.

Firewalls are often categorized as either network firewalls or host-based firewalls.

Network firewalls filter traffic between two or more networks; they are either software appliances running on general purpose hardware, or hardware-based firewall computer appliances.

Host-based firewalls provide a layer of software on one host that controls network traffic in and out of that single machine.

Firewall appliances may also offer other functionality to the internal network they protect, such as acting as a DHCP or VPN server for that network.
