Answer: Avoid installing and running it.
This isn't any kind of intrusion tool, just yet another backdoor program
that can be installed and activated after intrusion through other means
entirely -- indistinguishable except in fine detail from countless
others that have existed for decades. And _TheReg_ was very clear about
that:
The malware is not an exploit; rather it's a payload that opens a
backdoor on the targeted machine. It might be installed by an
unsuspecting user, an intruder, or through a dropper Trojan. How
RotaJakiro has been distributed remains unanswered.
So, there ya go: Avoid installing and running it. It's called system
administration.
