Need a good anti keylogger software

Hello,

I need a good software tool to stop keyloggers. I searched on Google and found an overwelming offer, some free and some paid; but I am interested in your personal suggestions, something that you use and are satisfied with! :) Also many anti spyware tools that I've found are basing on a signature database, and might not work with custom home made keyloggers or spware. Anyone knows a tool that blocks keyloggers and spyware without using a signature database?

"Hi Sile! Antivirus or Antispyware might remove the most known keyloggers but they can't protect your computer from getting your keystroke captured by a newly developed keyloggers. So, your computer will be still vulnerable from hackers. Because they will capture your keystrokes and can break into your account. Highly guarded Firewall might protect your computer but one can't take that chance. I too got my facebook and Twitter passwords got hacked but after I have installed CoDefender Anti-Keylogger (by Encassa), my computer is safe and there is no such hacking incidents. Basically, CoDefender Anti-Keylogger protects your Keystokes at Kernel level and encrypt them. It doesn't allow any keylogger to capture your keystrokes. If any keyloggers program is already present on your computer then also those keyloggers can't get the actual keystrokes pressed because CoDefender will encrypt your keystrokes at Kernel level and it will be almost impossible for any keyloggers to get your actual keystrokes pressed. They also provide 30 free trials and you can test this software provided by Encassa. I'd like to share the couple of questions and answers I have had with Encassa support.

My Security Suite already has keylogger ""detection"", tell me why CoDefender is   any better than this.

All security suites have keylogger detection. However, this is still a passive approach as any sort of detection must rely on the use of signatures and heuristics to detect keyloggers. These signatures and heuristics are created ""in response"" to a known keylogger or class of keyloggers. Malware writers and cybercriminals are using increasingly sophisticated methods (e.g. those found in polymorphic and metamorphic viruses) so that the attack vectors and payload (the keylogger) have different signatures. Polymorphic and metamorphic malwares alter themselves between each infection so that their signatures are completely different between infected machines, but their effectiveness/nastiness remains the same. No matter how often you update your security software, you will always be one step behind these kinds of malware as someone or some machine has to create these signatures and heuristics before the keyloggers can be detected. I know many people, and myself personally, have been infected by malware even though I had an enterprise-grade up-to-date security suite installed and running. These detections tell you you have been infected, but how much time has passed between the actual infection and the detection? Security updates are often released after the security vendor had a good chance to examine the malware and create a signature to detect it, but this is often too late. There is a critical gap that many security vendors don't talk about, and that's the time between infection and detection, and between detection and cure. The time between infection and cure is often weeks or months (this came from the mouth of a person working at one of the major security companies that I spoke to recently). In that time, how often have you logged on to your online email account, domain, chat programs, and how often have you entered your card details, or even seemingly benign information such as names of friends, emails and contact details. These could have easily been stolen during that critical time gap. In some cases, this critical time gap comes and goes without you nor any security suite even noticing. Many keyloggers now come with a rootkit to hide themselves, do their business, and then quietly remove themselves without detection. Cybercriminals with keyloggers have only one thing in mind - $$$, and they want to get in and out without being noticed.

How is CoDefender security different? It operates continuously to encrypt (using standards-based algorithms) your keystrokes on-the-fly as you enter it, and does this at the kernel level below even those found in kernel keyloggers. We have not found a practical stealth kernel keylogger that has managed to steal keystrokes at the kernel level below the CoDefender driver. What this means is, even if malware is present in your system, whatever keystrokes they steal remain incomprehensible to the attacker. Decryption of the encrypted keystrokes happen deep within the protected application, such as IE, or any program you choose. You can easily configure CoDefender (Standard Edition) to protect any program you like, and each time your selected programs start up, CoDefender patches them to perform the necessary decryption after all the potential spy-points used by keyloggers. Encryption and decryption also happens very fast requiring very little CPU. We run our tests with external keyboard simulators that pump in random keystrokes at thousands of characters/min.

Note that CoDefender software (more specifically, the Anti-keylogging Protection Module), does not detect for keyloggers - there are already many good detectors out in the market. CoDefender software provides the missing piece, the extra layer of defense to complement existing securiy suites, to provide you the necessary protection during that critical time gap.

Is your software compatible other security suites ?

We have tested it with security products from AVG, Symantec, McAfee, Webroot, ZoneAlarm, plus others, and they interoperate without any problems. However, as with any security products, you may need to add CoDefender software to their exclusions list, because CoDefender software does perform some low-level functions. This only needs to be done once. Feel free to contact us if you do find any problems with adding CoDefender to the exclusions list."
