What is a RAT (remote access Trojan)?

A remote access Trojan (RAT) is a malware program that includes a backdoor for administrative control over the target computer. RATs are usually downloaded invisibly with a user-requested program such as a game - or sent as an email attachment.
Once the host system is compromised, the intruder may use it to distribute RATs to other vulnerable computers and establish a botnet.
