and key stroke monitoring tools are nowadays becoming a severe problem for internet users. keyloggers are so common that you cannot trust any installer that it doesn't have keylogger in it. So friends today i will tell you tell you how to protect and secure your PC or Laptop from keyloggers. Well there is no manual way to get rid of Fully undetectable keyloggersbut we can encrypt our keystrokes and make the keystroke logs encrypted so that hackers can never know what
are the actual keys pressed. So first lets have some background information about keyloggers and how they works and then we will have solution to protect and secure our-self from getting infected.

Protect your PC from keyloggers

What is a keylogger?
Keylogger is basically a software tool which clones your key strokes pressed and writes them into log files. Some smart or simply say advanced keyloggers are retrieves the saved passwords in web browsers and other windows applications. Hackers use keyloggers to hack users email account passwords and other passwords and monitor their day to day activity.

How the Keylogger Works?
Lets explain this in very simple way, Whenever you press any key on your keyboard or laptop your machinegenerates a simple key code whichdepends on the keyboard format you are using. That key code tell your operating system that you have pressed a particular key. Now whatkeylogger does it save your key stroke into a file. Now further processing depends upon type of Keyloggers. Basically there are two types of keyloggers:
1. Physical keylogger
2. Remote Keylogger

The above processing is same for both physical and remote keyloggers . The difference lies in how they are gonna use a log file.
Physical keyloggers requires physical access to a victim's system, so that hacker can install it manually. He may be your friend, brother, sister or some close one who actually has physical access to your PC or laptop. Now for getting logs also he has to manually access your PC to check logs. But nowadays few good physical keyloggers are there which sends logs on email address. So nowadays we only need one time Physical access and that's justto install Keylogger and configure an email address to send logs.

Remote keyloggers are a bit different as there name suggest they can be installed from remote, means you don't need any physical access. Remote keyloggers during configuration generates a server that we can send to victim and which does not need any installation. Remotekeylogger maintains the records into log files and when victim connects to internet itsend the logs to hacker's email address or FTP account that he has putted during configuration time to receive logs.

SOLUTION FOR KEYLOGGERS:
As we all know new keyloggers are always FUD (fully undetectable) so our antivirus doesn't show any warning messages while infection. So the best method to protect yourself from keyloggers is that encrypt your key strokes by using key scramblers. What a keylogger does is that it monitors key strokes, so when we encrypt our key strokes, Hacker will still receive logs but that garbage as our keys are encrypted and hence he doesn't get anything and victim will remain safe from hiskeylogger.

Let's understand it with example. Suppose you have typed

BLACKHAT

What key scrambler will do? It will Encrypt your each key pressed into some garbage code and keylogger will get this as something like:

sT@ad9;8in=P

So friends what scrambler has done is that it has encrypted your keystrokes and saved you from getting preyto hackers. Secure and protect yourself from keyloggers as you cannot avoid them what you can just do is fool them by encrypting your keystrokes.
