Use On-Screen-KeyBoard on Windows OS to secure your transactions and mail accounts

Here,we come across the concept of “Virtual keyboard”. The primary use of using that tool is to provide an alternate way for the persons who can’t use normal keyboard.

The most important use is to reduce “Keystroke logging” risk. Keyboard logging is recording the keyboard strokes by using a software application or hardware.

It is used by hackers to get the login or some important details of the users. So, don’t get surprised, when someone did purchases or transactions on behalf of you. This is one of the ways, they used to hack your login and account credentials.

That type of risks can be reduced by using a “Virtual keyboard”.It  allows  inputs from the devices keyboard,mouse etc. But, you have to be conscious and ensure that no one is observing you while using “Virtual keyboards”;because, they can see what you are entering on the screen.

Many online services or providing inbuilt virtual keyboards on their web  sites to protect the user accounts from being hacked by hackers.

Many people don’t know that windows OS has a Virtual Keyboard. They named it as “On-Screen-Keyboard(OSK)”.

Steps are simple to get OSK.

1.     Click on the “run” button.

2.     Enter “OSK” and click on “OK” button.

You can use this for your transactions and account logins.

Thanks!
