Keyloggers have come a long way since the days of simply recording
keystrokes, and are now more commonly known as computer monitoring
applications. As the years roll by, these programs become more and more
powerful, recording things like websites visited, the passwords entered
into these websites, and any emails sent or received. They can also
emails the reports and logs, meaning we don't have to log back into the
target computer. All of this combined, along with a ton of other
features, make keyloggers a great tool for anyone trying to hack certain
accounts.
2013 has been a good year for keylogger programs, making 2014 look
extremely promising as well. The past months have seen improvements in
stealth, in functionality, and in ease of use, making a keylogger as
useful as ever. I've put together a quick list of keyloggers to look out
for over the next few months, that are really standing out from the
crowd at the moment. Let's take a look at some of the best keyloggers of
2013 and 2014:
Probably one of the best value for money keyloggers on the market. Gecko
Monitor balances solid, reliable features with brilliant ease of use.
The timeline feature makes this application stand out for anyone wanting
a simple, easy to use way of keeping tabs on a family or office
computer.
This is still one of the most popular commercial keyloggers available
online. SpyAgent is a brilliant product with a lot of great features.
Behaviour reports via email, graphical activity reports and the spyware
detector disabler are a few of the features that make this application
stand out from the crowd.
If you're looking for something a little more technical, Win-Spy may be
up your street. Although this product is probably slightly harder to
use, the extra features will make you feel like a real spy! With Win-Spy
you can record webcam and microphone activity, so you'll get more of a
feel for what's going on in the room the computer is based in. a
brilliant product.
Each of the above keyloggers has their own drawbacks and benefits.
Spytech SpyAgent is great if you want something that's very user
friendly. Gecko Monitor is great if you want an all-rounder that is
reliable. And Win-Spy is great if you want something with a lot more
technical features. From a hacking point of view, all of these
applications are great for doing something like uncovering a password,
or monitoring incoming and outgoing emails.
