Most of the devices used daily involve typing functions, be it via a physical keyboard on laptops or the virtual keypad that you have with touchscreen smartphones these days. But either of these mediums is prone to risks, especially when a
/ third-party actor has access to your typing/keystroke data which can be useful in harmful ways to the attacker.
Such a method is called keylogging, and when a device is infected with malware to steal data through keylogging, it is known as keylogger malware. With the advancement in technology, attackers are becoming smarter with their approach to stealing information.

/ their advantage to infect the device.
