Keystroke logging is the process of identifying and recording every keystroke made on a computer. Hackers use keyloggers to capture sensitive data like passwords, financial information, corporate secrets, intellectual property and any other type of data that might be useful to exploit.
Keyword loggers can reside in just about every part of the computer: the operating system, kernel, keyboard API or broken up and encoded throughout the computer. They are difficult to find and identify. There are even some keystroke loggers that utilize the computer’s microphone to ‘listen’ to the sound of the keys tapping and then derive which key was hit based on its sound signature.
By using good anti-spyware products, you can protect your computer against someone trying to record what you are typing so that they can discover your personal information, financial information, or sensitive business information. However, anti-spyware products are not 100% effective.
