Continuous Digital System Analysis in different System Softwares Using Keyloggers to Validate the need of Security

In the world with increasing technology, Security is the ultimate factor that has to be maintained. In this regard, one single vulnerability is all an attacker needs to cause damage. However, it is sometimes necessary to make use of such vulnerability in order to monitor the usage of desktop/laptop/mobile device for information security. The personal work of various customers is now being monitored by a number of businesses through different web applications. The motive of this model is to study the working of a keylogger by building a real-time working keylogger as well as a clipboard logger. that captures user entered keystrokes and copied text data respectively. This recent pandemic has affected the entire society where most of the people started using electronic devices for various purposes. The purposes can be good or bad based on the users’ intentions ranging from student’s usage for education, anti-nationals using devices as communication channels with their networks to create catastrophic events, children watching adult content, employees stealing workplace information etc. As a result, the high usage of the systems requires the necessity to keep a close check on the users in order to avoid these illegal activities from happening. Accordingly, this monitoring can be useful for employers to observe their employee system usage and can help the parents to examine their children's system usage. Thus, a keylogger can be used to capture the keystrokes and store the user data so that the higher authority can supervise this usage and act appropriately to circumvent any forbidden actions. However, there is a chance that the users can cleverly manipulate this keylogger mechanism by coping text in the device and perform actions on that info. So, the model is extended to use clipboard logger that collects the clipboard data to avoid any discrepancies caused by the keylogger data. This results in the overall surveillance of the system.
