KEYLOGGING AND USING KEYLOGGERS FOR HACKING
One of the most popular and easy way of hacking passwords, social networking accounts and other information is keylogging.
Keylogging in general refers to keeping a track of the keys pressed on a computer system.
There are two ways to keylogging.
1) Using a physical device which is connected to the computer, which keeps track of the keys pressed on the computer .
2) Using a keylogger software.
The first method is less preferred as the devices are costly and they have to be physically connected to the computers which is hard if you don’t have physical asses to the computer but they have their own merits like they are not detected by firewalls and antivirus software.
But mostly keylogger software are preferred as they are cheap, easy to use and provide many extra features like remote spying , making a quick installing package which is very useful if you don’t have physical asses to the computer. They can work in hidden mode, means they wont show in your added programs list and can only me assessed by pressing some special sequence of keys but they have their own demerits like they are detected by latest firewalls and antivirus softwares .
But there are many keyloggers out there which can bypass the firewalls and fool the antivirus.
Use those keyloggers which come under the category of parenting control or spying software, which are used by parents to keep an eye on their child’s online activities they are antivirus friendly, means they wont be detected by antivirus because if they were detected by antivirus then they wont be of any use as the child will know he is been spied on. Some antivirus, at extreme may just give a warning. But these keyloggers also have some disadvantages like they don’t have features like making remote installation package.
