Remote Monitoring
Netbull Keylogger Can Work On Remote Computers
A remote keylogger software is able to hiddenly monitor typed keystrokes, emails, user names and passwords, chat convos, online searches, programs running, internet surfing and organize them into a database that is sent to your email address. Few remote keyloggers also offer users the ability to remotely monitor a computer via a web browser.
With a remote keylogger, you can create a pre-configured package for instant and hidden installation on the target computer - this allows you to remotely install the monitoring system through an email attachment!
Remote keyloggers are designed to allow administrators to track what employees do throughout the day. However, the ethical boundary between justified monitoring and espionage is a fine line. Legitimate software is often used deliberately to steal confidential user information such as passwords.
Keystroke logging software may also be installed by protective parents allowing them to see everything their child types. A jealous spouse concerned about their husband or wife cheating might install a keylogger on their computer to keep tabs on them — it’s not necessarily a good thing, but it happens.
Some employers might install keystroke loggers on their employees’ computers to monitor everything they do, or just to investigate employees they’re suspicious about. Laws vary about when this is legal from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.
Most modern keyloggers are considered to be legitimate software and the developers and vendors offer a long list of cases in which it would be legal and appropriate to use keyloggers, including:
- Parental control: parents can track what their children do on the Internet, and can opt to be notified if there are any attempts to access websites containing adult or otherwise inappropriate content;
- Jealous spouses or partners can use a keylogger to track the actions of their better half on the Internet if they suspect them of "virtual cheating";
- Company security: tracking the use of computers for non-work-related purposes, or the use of workstations after hours;
- Company security: using keyloggers to track the input of key words and phrases associated with commercial information which could damage the company (materially or otherwise) if disclosed;
- Other security (e.g. law enforcement): using keylogger records to analyze and track incidents linked to the use of personal computers;
