Fileless Keylogger Attack

A “Fileless Keylogger Attack” is a type of cyber attack where a hacker can steal your personal information by installing a keylogger on your computer without leaving any trace of their activities in the files of your computer. A keylogger is a type of software program that records the keystrokes that you make on your keyboard, which can include passwords, credit card numbers, and other sensitive information.

With a fileless keylogger attack, the hacker does not need to install any malicious software onto your computer, but instead, they will use a legitimate program that is already on your computer to run their malicious code. This means that your antivirus software may not be able to detect the attack since there may not be any files for it to detect.

These types of attacks are generally very hard to detect, and they can cause a lot of damage, including identity theft, financial loss, or even ransomware attacks. To protect yourself, be sure to keep your antivirus software up to date, avoid clicking on suspicious links or downloading files from unknown sources, and use a password manager to create strong and unique passwords for your important accounts.
