Warning! Python Remote Keylogger (this is really too easy!)

Please note: Credits expire in 60 days. Big thanks to Linode for sponsoring this video!

I wrote a Python program that saves keystrokes to a cloud server. I compiled the script to run on a Windows 11 computer with anti-virus enabled. May this be a warning to both you and your family. Don't download software that you don't trust. Only download software from reputable software developers and those you trust.

Always great content! I've done something similar using SMTP to shoot over emails of the logged keystrokes on a timed interval. Love the use of a js server approach! About to jump into the code and have a look around. Keep up the amazing work and for making people aware of the real dangers that hide in plain site.

This keylogger scripting technique through other scripting mediums has been around for years. Dave, you just made it worldwide for Python. Well done.

[juliusrowe]

Great tutorial David! Please keep them coming!

This is one of the most complex python keyloger ever. I can do the same with aprox 20 lines of code without any extra software or anything.

I created a python key-logger like this couple years ago sending it to my free web hosting server. Awesome video.

I've once used python on my PC to give a demo to my friends that how getting passwords is easy and asked them to avoid using internet cafes, as getting the key strokes is pretty easy. That was way back in 2015.

This is awesome, it's more effective If the keylogger run as a daemon in the background and it is start running on system boot up

[lchevalier]

Awesome video, thank you David 😊! Those PoCs are really good for us to build countermeasures to that kind of stuff. I got curious about python compilation actually, I've did some Python install before but never compiled it as a binary, will give it a try later.

Haha I love this content David! I am doing the 30 day challenge of networkchuck right now the juniper ccna

[Mr.Noob_T.I]

one of the few channels that show content of I wish you were my mentor... I managed to reproduce another keylogger on the desktop! it also prints every click along with a notepad with text captures and creates folders separated by date!!! finally I managed to reproduce your code and forward the log file to a server... thank you very much for sharing your I am a Programming and Information Security enthusiast🇧🇷

Amazing content David I like that you bring us the best reputable personalities in their speciality field so we can learn from the best no need for fancy botcamps😄 ✅🖥️🙏

I started to smile after I saw the first thumbnail of this video. It was like Saurons Eye from the Lord of the Rings is watching you. And now it's like a Ringwraith.

[TheDirge]

Great content again. Reading the comments and your responses is very helpful in educating us, thanks!

[Spitfire_Cowboy]

Rather than outputting to a text file, you could use a nosql db and output the processes running at the time of the key logging to have a better picture of what the target is using at the time they are typing.

[SumanRoy.official]

Things that can be improved, make the script work like a blind shell, like not including the ip address in the program itself, instead we will initiate a call to the program via some authentication, also encrypted data transfer is necessary to avoid AV detection.

[theteacheroldschool]

thank you very much for this content, i love how you explain so good and simple to knowledge!

[kveldulfpride]

Hey David, thanks for sharing this! I don’t suppose you could maybe consider a pivot into voice ? Enough material with that to keep you occupied. Could maybe lead back into security related items (wire shark and RTP streams).
I know network engineers tend to grimace at voice, but steel yourself and think about it ;)

Hello Mr Bombal it seems that python is great langage to learn thx for u re constant effort God bless u
