What is Keylogger?
Keylogger is a spyware which will see what you type through the
keyboard and sends it to a hacker. Hackers can use keyloggers to
steal your passwords, credit card numbers and other confidential
data. So whenever you type the username and password in gmail,
online banking sites, etc. it will send the username and password
to hacker.
How to Protect?
In order to provide security for your system, you must have:
Good AntiVirus:
This is basic and best step to protect your system from
keylogger. So buy a licensed and best antivirus which is currently
in market. My suggestion is Kaspersky, Norton or Mcafee. Don't
forget to update regularly.
Note: Don't use trial or cracked pack, it is worthless to use.
Good Spyware:
Since keyloggers are basically spywares, if you are a frequent
user of Internet then you could be exposed to thousands of keyloggers
and spywares. So you should use a good antispyware such as NoAdware.
Antilogger can be Handy
Antiloggers are programs that detect the presence of keyloggers
on a given computer. Zemana Antilogger is a good antilogger.
Online Scanning
When ever you receive a suspicious file, you scan it with online
scanners such as Multi engine antivirus scanner which scans your
file with 24 antivirus engines and reports it back to you if the
file is recognized as a virus or spyware. This ensures that none
of the malicious programs can escape from being detected as there
are 24 different antivirus engines are involved in the scanning
process.
