Keylogger 📜 README

Overview 📚

This repository contains a simple keylogger that consists of a server and a client, allowing you to monitor and record keyboard input on a target machine. It's essential to use this software responsibly and only on systems you have explicit permission to monitor. Unauthorized use of keyloggers is illegal and unethical. 🔒

Features 🌟

  • The server 🖥️ listens for incoming connections and logs the received keystrokes.
  • The client 💻 runs on the target machine and sends keystrokes to the server.
  • Keystrokes are logged to a file 📝 on the client machine and transmitted to the server in real-time.
  • The client and server communicate over a network 🌐, allowing remote monitoring.

Usage 🚀

  1. Server Setup:

    • Run the server script on a machine where you want to collect keystroke data.
    • The server listens for incoming connections on the specified IP address and port.

  2. Client Setup:

    • Replace 'SERVER_IP' in the client script with the IP address of your server.
    • Run the client script on the target machine where you want to monitor keystrokes.
    • The client logs keystrokes to a file (key_strokes.txt) and sends them to the server.

  3. Monitoring:

    • The server will display received keystrokes in its console.
    • Keystrokes are also logged to a file on the client machine (key_strokes.txt).

Important Notes ⚠️

  • This keylogger should be used responsibly and legally. Unauthorized use is a violation of privacy and may be illegal.
  • Respect local laws and obtain appropriate permissions before using this software.
  • The code is provided for educational purposes only, and the authors are not responsible for any misuse.
