A keylogger is not some kind of weapon for hackers or a kind of control tool for various secret organizations, but it is a standard means of ensuring personal security, which is required by almost every citizen. Especially such software is necessary if several people have access to its device.
However, over time, the demand for such utilities has grown so much that a variety of companies have begun to develop them, and not every keylogger is suitable in certain situations. It is for this reason that it is best to decide in advance what features and benefits each individual program has.
SC-KeyLog
This is a keylogger that fully records all the keys pressed, while carefully encrypting the data it records. Among other things, it is worth considering that the program provides the ability to remotely view logs.
Like any similar program, this utility captures texts of any type of email, as well as messages in various devices. The program also captures all kinds of changes in text files, data that a person enters on web pages, mouse clicks, names of windows that open, start and close times of various programs. It is worth noting that this software also saves the typed passwords of users and many other elements.
Functional
You can enter the correct settings using the Wizard, which will immediately flash before your eyes after the program is installed on your hard drive.
It is worth noting that the utility is quite actively detected by almost any anti-virus program, so do not think about how you manage to use it covertly.
Ardamax keylogger
The volume of the program is quite standard for utilities of this class and is 392 kb. The utility itself is quite average and at the same time an easy-to-use keylogger. The program automatically monitors and saves constantly keystrokes from the keyboard, simultaneously indicating the time, the name of the program in which the data were entered, as well as the window title. It is worth noting that the software can work completely invisibly, as it has the functions of stealth: files, automatic loading, task manager and many others. If you need invisible work, the system is started and controlled by hot keys, and logs can simply be sent to a specific email account or server.
How is it determined?
In this case, antivirus programs are not so active, so it is quite possible to use such a program secretly. The interface is extremely accessible and understandable. The only negative is that the program is paid and is quite expensive.
Actual Spy
In addition to the features that any keylogger for Android and other operating systems provides you with, this utility also has a lot of additional options. The most interesting among all is the possibility of taking screenshots from the screen at a certain period of time, due to which you can find a graphic password, all kinds of graphic limiters of access to certain Internet services used by the tracking object, as well as many other interesting points.
In addition, it should be noted that the program is distinguished by a number of other special functions, such as:
- Record the start and close time of programs.
- Case sensitive
- Tracking the contents of the clipboard.
- Control over the operation of printers.
- Computer file system monitoring.
- Interception of visited sites.
- Much more.
The log files of this utility are encrypted, after which the report is generated in a fairly convenient html format or text notebook. It is also possible to send to a specific email account, server, computer through a local network. You can also set your own password for viewing logs.
All in moderation
For ease of use, a separate limitation is set on the size of text logs or screenshots, since the latter take up much more memory compared to a text file. Among other things, you can set a limit on the amount of the clipboard. If too much information will be copied there, only the part that was indicated will be remembered.
Probably the best keylogger among all proposed to date.
Convenience and Security
First of all, it is worth noting that this program is the most voluminous among all that can be found today on the Internet, but in reality everything looks scary only in the description, in reality, the keylogger for Android has a volume of only 1.51 MB. Special attention should be paid to the fact that its domestic manufacturers produce it, so understanding the program interface is not as difficult as it might seem at first glance.
Anti-virus users safely ignore the fact that such a utility appeared in the system, although some of them may signal that certain running processes are suspicious.
EliteKeylogger
Elite Keylogger is a completely standard utility that perfectly implements a standard set of functions. Visited sites, emails, keystrokes, activation and shutdown times of various programs, passwords - all this is carefully recorded and stored in the utility logs, after which its owner can carefully examine the contents. In addition, this program carefully monitors documents sent by the user for self-printing.
This keylogger is famous among users for the fact that antivirus programs practically do not determine either the program itself or any processes that it carries out. It is not necessary to pre-launch this utility, it can automatically be activated along with the operating system, it even starts a little earlier to determine the login and password that are entered during the Windows boot process. It should be noted right away that the program cannot be deleted if the user does not know the specialized password for the admin of the utility. It is also impossible not to say that this keylogger is in Russian, it cannot be found, since it does not appear in the tray, does not display any windows and, in principle, does nothing that could give out its work.
The program determines and also demonstrates keystrokes not only of any standard keys, numbers and letters. In addition, service key presses, such as Shift, Alt, Ctrl, and many others, are tracked. It is worth noting that the utility considers all the operations in the browser in sufficient detail, that is, it captures the links that the user enters into the browser, tracks on which specific pages all kinds of fields and forms are filled, and also remembers the headers and clicked links in browsers.
Features and Security
It’s worth mentioning right away that the utility has a huge number of different nuances and features. When installing, you should pay attention to what you are installing - a hidden installation or the utility itself, because then you can suffer for a very long time trying to remove it. The utility itself is characterized by an incredibly large number of various settings, so you will have to understand it in detail.
For example, you can configure the screen capture mode so that the utility automatically takes high-quality pictures at certain time intervals or at certain events. This is a particularly convenient feature, as it provides high program efficiency in most situations. It is worth noting that you can set up a fully automatic screen capture in the same way as with standard surveillance cameras, and if no action is taken, the screen is temporarily stopped, no duplicates will be made. Thus, you will not encounter such a situation when, looking at the log, you will need to look through a huge number of pictures in search of what might interest you.
It is worth noting that the use of this program cannot be detected even by most utilities, which are commonly called anti-keyloggers, not to mention antivirus programs.
Fully automatic removal of obsolete files after the log exceeds a certain mark. If necessary, you can configure everything at your discretion and needs, as well as, for example, indicate that cleaning can be done only after a full report is generated, which will be sent by e-mail. Reports can also be sent via FTP or stored in a networked environment.
The rat
The program is written in standard assembler, so this keylogger for Windows takes only 13 Kb. However, despite the size, the program can automatically monitor keystrokes in various password windows or the console, monitors the clipboard, and also has a huge number of other standard functions.
The utility is equipped with a specialized file clip, which allows you to almost completely eliminate the possibility of detecting source files by signature. There is also a proprietary text editor that allows you to conveniently work with dump files, solving the problem of conversion to Cyrillic or cleaning out all kinds of "garbage".
In fact, activating a specific version of this program on our computer, we see an application that sets up the utility. The result of this tuner is an executable file - a multifunctional keylogger (Windows 7). Passwords and other text data entered by the user are saved to the log completely automatically, and even after the system reboots, the utility will continue to work. It will be possible to delete it from the computer only with the help of a specialized adjuster-configurator, as well as hot keys.
Do antivirus programs detect it?
The developer said that this keylogger in Russian is completely invisible to antivirus programs and special programs that track such “keyloggers”. Most antivirus programs are completely indifferent to the full version, but a free program is detected almost immediately. Keylogger also offers a ton of settings, but viewing the log normally is not as easy as it might seem at first glance.
Of course, functionality is far behind any major utilities. However, if you need a keylogger on your computer just for familiarization, then this utility will do just fine.
