Malware
Keylogger
In Turkish: Keylogger (tuş kaydedici)
A program, or sometimes a small device, that records every key you press, including passwords and card numbers.
A keylogger captures what you type before any website can protect it, then sends the record to whoever planted it. It is often a part of a trojan, and on shared or public computers it may have been left there on purpose.
A second step at login, such as an app code or a passkey, limits the damage, because a stolen password alone is no longer enough.
What to do
- Avoid signing in to bank or email accounts on shared computers.
- Turn on two-step verification for your important accounts.
- Use a password manager to fill passwords instead of typing them.
