The Presentation gives Enhanced features of Remote Administration , Types , Installation Process

1. Remote Administration

2.  Remote administration can be broadly defined as
any method of controlling, monitoring a
networked device from a remote location.
However, it is the actual task at hand that
usually defines these roles more clearly
 Remote administration has developed and
evolved over recent years, and is no longer
simply about controlling a device over a network,
be it local or wide area.
 IT assets

3.  Companies are looking for ways to provide cost-
effective network access to their remote and
mobile employees. For chronic problems PCs,
applications as remote assistant “remote
administrator” can save time by giving you
access and control a remote PC via either a
network or a dial-up connection. If your friend’s
or relative’s PC is running Windows XP
professional, you can access the system
remotely for free with a computer running any
version of windows, including Windows 95.

4. Types of Remote Administration
 Administered remote users
Administered remote users are users that you
have defined as remote users Defining remote
users happens in two ways:
I. When you conduct remote updates, non
administered remote users become
administered remote users.
II. When you manually administer a remote user
rather than waiting for a remote update.

5.  Non administered remote users
I. Non administered remote users are remote
users that are unknown to the local INTUITY
AUDIX system. Non administered remote users
automatically become administered remote users
when the system goes through the remote update
process.
 Verified non administered remote users
I . Verified non administered remote users are
remote users who appear in the local INTUITY
AUDIX database only because they successfully
exchanged messages with the local system.

6. Installation of Remote Administration Service
 Microsoft Windows Millennium Edition (Me) does not
include the Remote Registry service. The Remote
Administration service is included with Windows 95 and
Windows 98
 Both computers involved in Remote Administration
must use the same level of security (either user-level or
share-level security).
Installation Steps:
i) Click Start, point to Settings, click Control Panel, and
then double-click Network.
ii) Click File And Print Sharing. Click both the I want to be
able to give others access to my files and I want to be
able to allow others to print to my printer(s) check
boxes to select them, and then click OK.
iii) In Control Panel, double-click Passwords.

7. iv) On the Remote Administration tab, click
the Enable remote administration of this
server check box to select it.
v) Set a password for Remote Administration
and then click OK.

8. How to install in windows server 2008:
I. Click Start, and then double-click Server Manager.
II. If the User Account Control dialog box appears,
confirm that the action it displays is what you
want, and then click Continue. If you are logged
on with an account that is not a member of the
built-in Administrators group, you may be
required to provide administrator credentials and
then click OK.
III.Under Features Summary, click Add Features.
IV. Double-click Remote Server Administration Tools,
double-click Role Administration Tools, double-
click Active Directory Domain Services Tools, and
then click Next.
V. Click Install.

12. Additional Features
Remote Administration Tools
You can access RSAT by navigating Control Panel ->
Administrative Tools -> Remote Desktop Services.

13. Features of Remote Administration
 Automated Tasks
Remote administration software that allows you to
automate tasks or jobs will very quickly and effectively
save time. Administration tasks can be automated over
as many computers or servers as required, and even
segmented into individual, group or global levels, to
ensure flexibility.
 Remote Control
The ability to remotely control a networked device is a
must have in any remote administration scenario. This
provides your administrators with the ability to remotely
control any computer, provided it is connected to the
internet.
 Multiple Sessions
By presenting your administrator with the ability to
handle concurrent problems affecting different users’
computers simultaneously, from his own workstation,
desk-side and off-site calls can be dramatically reduced.
This in turn leads to a reduction in resource costs,
human, energy and otherwise.

14.  Remote Power Control
A more advanced remote administration tool is the ability
to remotely power down, restart or power on a device.
Servers and workstations can be shut down on schedule
to reduce your energy costs, or on demand when required
 Online Inventory
A time consuming task that haunts any IT administration
team is keeping an up to date inventory of all devices on
their network. This job can be cut down considerably by
using a remote administration tool to compile the
inventory instead. Hardware (including: CPU type, hard
disk capacity/usage, RAM capacity/usage, etc) software
(ensuring that all necessary and authorised pieces of
software are installed) and Services, Patches and Hotfixes
can all be monitored and administrated remotely.

15. Remote Administration Tools
 Definition
A remote administration tool (RAT) is a piece of
software that allows a remote "operator" to control a
system as if he has physical access to that system.
While desktop sharing and remote administration have
many legal uses, "RAT" software is usually associated
with criminal or malicious activity. Malicious RAT software
is typically installed without the victim's knowledge, often
as payload of a Trojan horse, and will try to hide its
operation from the victim and from security software.

16. The operator controls the RAT through a network
connection. Such tools provide an operator the following
capabilities:
 Screen/camera capture or image control
 File management (download/upload/execute/etc.)
 Shell control (from command prompt)
 Computer control (power off/on/log off if remote
feature is supported)
 Registry management (query/add/delete/modify)
 Hardware Destroyer (over clocker)
 Other software product-specific functions

17. Remote Administration Tools in Android
AndroRAT - Remote Administration Tool for Android
 Androrat is a client/server application developed in Java
Android for the client side and in Java/Swing for the
Server.
 The name Androrat is a mix of Android and RAT
(Remote Access Tools)
 Features
Get contacts (and all theirs informations)
Get call logs
Location by GPS/Network
Monitoring received messages in live

18.  Monitoring phone state in live (call received,
call sent, call missed..)
 Take a picture from the camera
 Stream sound from microphone (or other
sources..)
 Streaming video (for activity based client
only)
 Send a text message
 Open an URL in the default browser
 Do vibrate the phone

20. Remote Administration Tools – Windows 8.1
How to Install ??
 To install RSAT download the executable from the
following
http://www.microsoft.com/enau/download/details.aspx
?id=39296
 Make sure that you download the 64bit or 32bit version
depending on which operating system that you are
running. RSAT will not install if you download the wrong
version.
 Once downloaded, run the installer for RSAT. RSAT is
essentially a Windows Update so the installer will ask if
you want to install RSAT and then ask you to accept the
license agreement. There are no other options that can
be configured.

21. Easy steps to Access Remote Administration
 Run Server Manager by right clicking the start
menu and selecting search. From search enter in
“server” and run server manager when it appears in
the search results.
 When Server Manager is run for the first time there
will be no servers listed. To add servers, right click
“all servers” found on the left hand side and select
the option Add Servers.
 If you right click on a server, this will display a list
of administration tools including command line tools
that are available on that server taking into account
any roles and features installed on that server. For
example, Active Directory Users and Computers will
connect to any writable Domain Controller which will
generally be that Domain Controller that is closest to
where you are.

22.  When running one of the admin tools, sometimes
additional options may be hidden from the view. To
see these options, select the menu view and then
select the option “Advanced Features”.

23. Hacking With Remote Administration Tools

26. Black Rat

28. Dark Comet
 There is no doubt that
Dark Comet is the best
Rat ever and a free
RAT too and also the
old one too and still
many users use it
because of its great
functions like in this
rat you dont have to
forward port it has
UNPN function enabled
which automatically
forward your port and
no need to forward
from the router plus it
is the most stable rat

29. REMOTE ADMINISTRATION TOOL INFECTION
 Remote Administration Tools must be installed on a
target system before they can be used by malicious
persons
 The easiest way for a malicious remote administration
tool to infect your system is to exploit certain ActiveX
controls and other security holes in your Internet
Explorer browser. By browsing insecure websites on
the internet, users may encounter various pop-ups,
which secretly install parasitic RATs on your computer
once clicked upon.
