Abstract

In this paper we use ¡°alternative data streams¡± that were introduced with the occurrence of Windows NT and its file system NTFS, as a gateway for subverting several commercial endpoint security systems. We give a simple set of commands by which it is possible to copy data from PCs that have installed endpoint security access systems, with- out been detected or by making the endpoint security access system to generate incomplete log entries that again do not reveal an information about the files that have been copied.
