To protect yourself from security and privacy threats, experts recommend to use a combination of three products: a personal firewall, an anti-virus and an anti-spyware – and regularly update the latter two. However, even these are not 100% secure against keyloggers.
Keyloggers are small spy programs, that record everything one types on the computer, including documents, emails, usernames and passwords, and then either store this information in a hidden place on your computer for the person to obtain it later or send it over to the Internet to the person who infiltrated it.
In order to prevent your personal info be recorded by keylogger you can use an anti-keylogger software. There are 2 types of anti-keyloggers:
Anti-Keyloggers that use a signature database and try to detect and neutralize the keyloggers in the database. The main disadvantage of these anti-keyloggers is that the database is easily getting outdated.
Anti-Keyloggers that does not look for keyloggers on a computer, they just block the way keyloggers work. Keyloggers may use several mechanisms to get your personal info (hooks, screenshots, drivers, etc.). The disadvantage is that there are mechanism that con not be easily blocked.
A team of researchers have published a case study that focuses on keyloggers and their use to harvest banking-related user names and passwords. The team observed over 70 different data-stealing malware and found over 33 GB of log files in “dropzones.”
The log files contained personal information on more than 170,000 victims, including passwords, PINs, user names, and so on. They also contained information, including PINs, on over 10,000 bank accounts, over 140,000 email passwords and the access details of nearly 80,000 members of social networking sites such as Facebook and Hi5.
The team singled out the Limbo keylogger for detailed analysis. They observed a total of 164,000 infections with this malware. The keylogger stored most of the data it collected in two Chinese drop zones. Geographically this broke down as; 16 per cent of the infections were traced to Russia, 14 per cent to the USA, 13 per cent to Spain, 12 per cent to the UK, and surprisingly, 7 per cent to Germany.
At the conclusion of the study, the team handed over its data to the Australian CERT (AusCert), which has a system for passing information on to banks and other institutions, who can then inform the victims and take steps to remedy the situation. Read the rest of this entry »
