Security tip2:-

Due to advancements in technology there are lot of key loggers available in internet where even osk is also not quite helpful
So here is another tip

Type password in bits

For e.g. : If the password is β€˜amam’ (that’s not my password πŸ˜‰ ) type in β€˜am’ in the password box. Now click on a blank area in the window and so that the password box is not in focus anymore. Now type some random text (say β€˜monia’). This will not appear on the password box since it is out of focus. Now click on the password box and type some more of the password, say β€˜am’. Again click on a blank area and type some random words. Repeat this till you complete your password.

The Keyboard Logger would have recorded am-monia-am since most loggers can’t differentiate the fields.

Next tip will be added soon

    Well, this had been avoided in a Keylogger I wrote time ago, I find the password box & take the text written in it only, Don't know about any other keylogger.

    The big problem that we've found theoretical solutions for, is the virtual keyboard very much harder to detect.

    I agree with you. This method is not so secure. Also these keylogger logs will be read by a human who can brute force with the combination of words he gets. Also I feel it would be kinda hectic to remember doing this all the time we surf on a public computer.

    Rather, if this trick was to be used, it would be better if the user used random combination of numbers and varying case alphabets.

    that would confuse a manual guessing procedure but it will still be vulnerable to brute force attacks.

    goyal , the best option to be safe from keyloggers is to use virtual/onscreen keyboard. and better still if using 3rd party applications that can be used from pen drives.
