Keylogger

A keylogger is a computer program that records every key that a person types on a keyboard. Keyloggers can be used for good things, like making sure kids aren’t looking at bad stuff on the internet or checking that employees aren’t misusing company computers. But they can also be used by bad people to steal passwords and other private information.

If you think there might be a keylogger on your computer, there are a few things you can do. First, make sure your computer has antivirus software installed and it’s up to date. Second, be careful about what programs you download and where you go on the internet. Finally, if you’re really worried, use a virtual keyboard to type in your passwords instead of a regular one.

That’s about it! Keyloggers are kind of sneaky, but if you’re careful, you can stay safe.
