Overview

Vendor Notes:

 From the doc: 'eNFILTRATOR Black Box Home Edition (eBBHE) is a complete computer monitoring solution for personal computers. Everything that is typed, every window that is used, will be logged for review. eBBHE will tell you how long a program was used, how many keystrokes were entered, the amount of active and inactive time spent on each program, the program's title, path, name and more! Everything you need to know to make accurate assessments of computer usage will be logged.'

Category:

Key Logger: (Keystroke Logger). A program that runs in the background, recording all the keystrokes. Once keystrokes are logged, they are hidden in the machine for later retrieval, or shipped raw to the attacker. The attacker then peruses them carefully in the hopes of either finding passwords, or possibly other useful information that could be used to compromise the system or be used in a social engineering attack. For example, a key logger will reveal the contents of all e-mail composed by the user. Keylog programs are commonly included in rootkits and RATs (remote administration trojans).
