"0wning Vista from the boot" interview at SecurityFocus

What is Vbootkit?


Nitin & Vipin: Vbootkit is much like a door or a shortcut to access vista's kernel.

A bootkit is a rootkit that is able to load from a boot-sectors (master
boot record, CD , PXE , floppies etc) and persist in memory all the way
through the transition to protected mode and the startup of the OS.
