In many companies now-a-days data security and data recovery is the most important factor. So there are many cases where data recovery is required. For these kinds of problems keylogger is one of the best solutions which is often referred to as keylogging or keyboard capturing.
This is a surveillance application used to track the users which logs keystrokes; uses log files to retrieve information. Using this application we can recall forgotten email or URL. In this keylogger project, whenever the user types something through the keyboard, the keystrokes are captured and mailed to the mail id of admin without the knowledge of the user within the time set.
The purpose of this application is to keep tracks on every key that is typed through the keyboard and send it to the admin through the mail server in the time set or given. It provides confidentiality as well as data recovery to all the IT infrastructures in need.
