hmmm...my usual headache are those keyloggers installed on public Internet cafes here...Hi, I'm keeping a watch on the List for short time. And I have a question : What are the techniques to protect a password from being keylogged without any Anti-Keylogging Software. I thought of virtual keyboards, and other non-keyboard techniques but modern keyloggers can take screenshots too. So It's useless.
i had an internal developer make a site for us to use an on-screen keyboard without mouse clicks. Effective against 'keyloggers' taking screenshots of every mouse click but not against people watching your back :) but a combination of keyboard and the on-screen one does the trick aside from anti-keylogger software installed. Best way is to educate our clients on how to avoid keyloggers installed in the first place. :)
