Acknowledgement: CompTIA Security+ Guide to Network Security
Fundamentals, Fifth Edition , 2015, by M. Ciampa

by a non-profit organization.
Exercises 1 : Use a Software Keylogger
Pre-work:

Keylogger: A key logger program captures everything that a user enters
on a computer keyboard. In this project, you will download and use a
software key logger.
[The purpose of this activity is to provide information regarding how
these programs function in order that adequate defences can be
designed and implemented. These programs should never be used in a
malicious fashion against another user.]
1. Open your web browser and enter the URL: www.spyrix.com
[The location of content on the Internet may change without warn-
ing. If you are no longer able to access the program through the
above URL, use a search engine to search for “Spyrix Personal
Monitor”.]

products.

default installation procedures.
6. Click Finish to launch Spyrix.
7. Click Next to use the wizard to set the program settings.
8. The Hide everywhere is not available on the Free Keylogger
version but for the other versions this would allow Spyrix to act like
a rootkit with no traces available. Click Next.

access to the program. Click Next.
