Humpty Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 Some trojans includes keylogging functionalities, which can steal confidential information you are typing. To fight this threat, many HIPS software, and also dedicated anti-keyloggers software, now provides anti-keylogger features.However, there is many ways to monitor the keyboard, and not all HIPS cover all ways to do keylogging. AKLT is a tool using 3 different methods to monitor your keyboard, and enables you to check your defences. AKLT does not try to monitor your keyboard by using a global hook, nor any DLL/code injection, as these methods are widely known and covered by all security softwares I have tested. Additionaly, AKLT provides two ways of taking screenshots, as a keylogger or a trojan could do. I am not aware of any HIPS providing screenshot protection, but in case one of your security software is claiming to provide such feature, you will be able to test it thanks to AKLT.
