Lab Description

Keylogging is the process of monitoring and recording user keystrokes, often in real-time. While frequently associated with malicious activities such as credential theft or spying, keyloggers also serve legitimate functions, including user monitoring, input diagnostics, and forensic investigations. In this lab, learners explore the creation of Python-based keyloggers using the pynput library and expand their understanding through practical scripting exercises. They will implement real-time keystroke capture, log key events to files, and incorporate periodic data retrieval. A deeper dive will reveal how these keyloggers can be integrated into reverse shell payloads, simulating real-world attack scenarios for defensive analysis. Through this controlled environment, participants will gain hands-on experience with offensive techniques to improve their ability to detect, prevent, and mitigate unauthorized keystroke monitoring and data exfiltration on endpoints.
