Who uses keystroke loggers?
As with any tool, whether it is used for good or evil is determined by who is using it and the purpose for which they are using it. Keystroke loggers are used by many different groups, such as: • Government and law enforcement officials: They use keystroke loggers to monitor. They also use keyloggers to collect information on foreign governments, terrorists, etc. for intelligence purposes. • Businesses: Keyloggers are often used in office situations to monitor employee productivity, or to keep an eye on employees who might be considered “troublemakers.” • Parents: They will use keylogger programs to monitor their children’s activities online. Parents use them to make sure their children are not engaging in inappropriate internet activities such as giving out personal information, or taking part in cyberbullying, etc. • Husbands/wives/private investigators: Keyloggers can be used to monitor a spouse if there is suspicion of infidelity. • Criminals: They love to be able to get their hand
