Abstract
A process includes, responsive to a request to load a kernel module, determining, by an operating system kernel, a hash digest for the kernel module. The kernel module is associated with a name. The process includes determining, by the operating system kernel, whether an expected kernel module list contains an entry that contains the name and associates the name with the hash digest. The process includes, responsive to the determination of whether the expected kernel module list contains the entry, generating, by the operating system kernel, an alert that is associated with the kernel module.
