A keylogger is a piece of software code used to surveillance a victim’s computer by recording each keystroke type on the keyboard. This program records everything, every word you type on a keyboard. Furthermore, after maintaining logs, it sends the log files to a specific server, where crooks can read the information entered by you, including, passwords, bank account numbers, IMs, email and messages too.
In other words, it’s a type of surveillance/monitoring application that is installed on your system without your knowledge. To this end, phishing, social engineering, reverse engineering, and other download or file-sharing software. For these reasons, Norton Support has come with an effective blog to keep you safe, secure from such potential damage. So let’s get started!
Recognition
Detecting a keylogger on your computer is indeed a quest because they are designed and trained to stay hidden. But when you use Norton you can blow their cover. In addition, you can look out once you start to sense (recognise) them. To this end, when you notice your computer is slower than usual, freezes up while browsing the Internet or don’t show up the screen as what you input. These all are symptoms of severe Keyloggers.
Removal
When you manually browse or look for any hidden program which is buried in your computer’s main directory; delete it, just delete it without opening the file. This is actually the best of to get rid of such hideous programs. After deletion, make sure to run Norton’s full scan.
Prevention
- Don’t trust anyone (any files) you look on the Web or download from unknown sources.
- Norton’s provide a virtual keyboard. So when you are inputting some important information, always try to use it.
- Run a complete scan after updating the Norton antivirus program once or twice in a month.
