The threat of keylogging
Publicly available PCs have been increasingly exposed to criminals installing various keystroke logging hardware, potentially stealing users’ sensitive data and money. Libraries and other public institutions have sought to protect themselves from this by shielding access to computer hardware, and thorough inspections. (through increased oversight).
However, the problem still exists. As such, it is important that you carry out a risk analysis in order to ensure that your IT security measures cover the most impactful threats. To save you some time, we have carried out a risk analysis for you. Download it below!
The solution
In collaboration with Danish libraries, Princh has developed a solution to combat the keylogging threat; our software disables character input from physical keyboards when entering sensitive data, such as email logins, payment card details, social security numbers and more. Instead, users can enter their information through an on-screen virtual keyboard. Since no data is entered via the physical keyboard, keyloggers cannot register the information.
Who is it for

Libraries
