Oxynger KeyShield: Protection Against Keystroke Logging

Keystroke logging, or keylogging, is the act of recording everything you type on a keyboard, including passwords. The tools that perform keylogging are called keyloggers. There are software keyloggers and hardware keyloggers.

Oxynger KeyShield provides protection from keylogging. It is 100% protected against hook based, API based, kernel/driver based and hardware keyloggers. Ordinary anti-keyloggers only protect from some types of software keyloggers. However, Oxynger KeyShield protects its keystrokes from software and hardware keyloggers.

Most virtual keyboards, such as the virtual keyboard that comes with Windows, send normal keyboard event messages to the target program to type text. Almost every software keylogger can record these typed characters. Oxynger KeyShield does not use ordinary methods to send keystrokes to the target application. Instead, it uses a very secure communication channel for sending keystrokes to the target application. Keyloggers will not be able to record keystrokes sent through this channel.
