KeyDevil Hardware Key Logger - Frequently
Asked Questions
What are keyloggers?
A proper definition of a keylogger is "any device or program that
captures information from an input device and places the captured
data into a file." What this should tell you is that a keylogger can
take many forms; some almost impossible to detect. Regardless of the
type, a keylogger generally does one thing; capture the keystrokes
from a keyboard.
What is a Hardware Keylogger?
Hardware keyloggers are small lipstick shaped devices that are
placed inline, between your keyboard and computer (see figure 1).
Since they are connected near the back of the computer, which is
often hidden from site, these devices are rarely noticed or
detected, as figure 2 indicates. Unfortunately, this easily
overlooked device has the power to record hundreds of thousands of
keystrokes, including passwords, credit card numbers, or adulterous
email and chat conversations.
What Is The Difference Between KeyDevil

Size. The 64Kb Personal - 128Kb Rocket - 256Kb EliteX.
How Much Data Can The KeyDevil Keep Stored?
