Laptop Hardware Keylogger in Mini PCI Card

04 Mar, 2007, 3:00 pm IST | by Sharon Khare | Notebooks

BitForensics has announced the release of "KeyCarbon Raptor", a laptop hardware keylogger.

The "KeyCarbon Raptor" card records all typing on a laptop keyboard, plugs into the Mini-PCI slot of a laptop computer, and stores captured keystrokes on the onboard 256 MB MicroSD card. The card is 100% passive, requires no drivers, is undetectable by any software running on the laptop and operates from the moment it is plugged in. As the card is completely invisible to the Operating System (OS) it does not slow the computer down or drain system resources.

"Law enforcement and government agencies have led the way in adopting this card as part of their toolkit. Early adopters were impressed with how easy it was to record typing on a laptop, by simply plugging the card into a spare slot on the laptop. The passive card requires no drivers, and operates from the moment it is plugged in," said Shane Tolmie, President of BitForensics.

The card can also used as a data backup against theft or system failure.

The card is located inside the case of the laptop, plugged into the Mini-PCI slot of the laptop motherboard.

The card is compatible with all operating systems that run on a Pentium compatible CPU including Windows (all versions including Vista), Linux, DOS, BeOS, and OS/2. There are three models of the KeyCarbon Raptor card available, with memory between 16MB and 128MB, encryption up to 128-bit, and support for date/time stamping.

The first units will be available to the public on March 18th, 2007.
