Keylogging Report Configuration

This topic describes the metadata that you can select to be included in a Key Logging type report (see Report Types).

A Key Logging type report would be typically used to report on captured keylogger data, that includes:

  • Typed Text: Keystrokes when a user types not allowed commands, not allowed phrases or sensitive words while browsing social media websites.

  • Special/Combination key(s): Keystrokes when a user presses

    Special keys which are PrtScr, Backspace, Insert, Enter, Clear, Return, Delete, End, Esc, Home, Page Up, Page Down, Tab and F1 to F12.

    Combination keys with another key. Combination keys are Alt, Ctrl, Shift and Win (Windows) and Cmd, Control, Option, and Shift (Mac).

For detailed instructions on the steps required to create a report, see Creating a Custom Report.

The fields that are available for configuring a Key Logging type report are the same as for an Applications type report, with the addition of the Typed Text and Special/Combination key(s) fields.
