Educational Keylogger

How Keyloggers Work

Keyloggers capture keyboard input and record it for later retrieval. They can be used for:

• Legitimate monitoring (parental controls, employee monitoring)
• Malicious purposes (stealing passwords, personal information)
• Educational research (understanding security vulnerabilities)

Protecting Yourself

• Use anti-malware software that can detect keyloggers
• Be cautious about installing software from untrusted sources
• Keep your operating system and applications updated
• Use two-factor authentication when possible
• Consider using password managers that auto-fill credentials
• Use virtual keyboards for sensitive information
