About this course

The Key Logger spyware program is a tool used to record every keystroke typed on a keyboard, exploited by both professional and novice hackers to collect sensitive data such as passwords and personal information. This data is saved in a text file and sent to the attacker via email. This course aims to teach you how to create a Key Logger program using C++, with a comprehensive and detailed explanation of the language's fundamentals, making it suitable even for beginners with no prior programming experience. The course also focuses on how to protect yourself from falling victim to these attacks by understanding how these programs work and prevention strategies. The course starts from scratch and helps you build strong skills in programming and cybersecurity, enabling you to understand and effectively deal with digital threats.

Expected outcomes

  • Ability to design an effective Key Logger spyware program.
  • Acquire skills in managing and processing text data.
  • Familiarity with system protection mechanisms against spyware.
  • Develop practical experience in programming with C++.
