This is a collection of 185 or more Remote Administration Tools (server and client(for most of them)) for research and for historical records and as an archive.
- A remote administration tool (RAT) is a software program that gives you the ability to control another device remotely.
You then have access to the device's system as if you had physical access to the device itself. - RATs can be used Legitimately.
For example, when you have a technical problem on your work computer, sometimes your corporate IT guys will use a RAT to access your computer and fix the issue. - RATs can also be used Ill-legitimately.
Besides IT another group of people who use RATs are hackers trying to do harm to your device or gain access to your information for malicious purposes.

- If you are doing something illegal.
Probably.
- I don't know.
- I have not tested them all.
- If you decide to research any, I suggest a heavily controlled sandboxed virtual machine or on a designated lab computer meant for this type of research.
- Not me.
