Major SpyShelter announcement: Keyboard encryption is dead, long live keyboard encryption



SpyShelter is ditching their 'Keyboard encryption'!!! I myself froze from the announcement! SpyShelter wihtout keyboard encryptionm!!!!

Developers says, the new SpyShelter 15 is (still) expected to adequate protection from keyloggers, and other spyware. There are plans for a free version of their keyboard encryption app but still not yet guaranteed as of the moment. Read on below. 
 
Quote:Mike Tyson once said that “everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth”. Unfortunately, while working on our plan to implement a modern version of keyboard encryption, we at SpyShelter got a big punch right in our collective mouths.

We’re embarrassed to say that we showed “Coming Soon” for our Keyboard Encryption feature, under the Protection tab in our brand new SpyShelter version 15 and told SpyShelter fans that we plan to launch this feature after leaving beta.

Unfortunately, after researching carefully we have made the difficult decision to permanently remove keyboard encryption from SpyShelter 15.

Why won’t keyboard encryption be in SpyShelter 15?

While attempting to create a modern version of keyboard encryption that would continue to function on Windows 10, 11, and any future Windows versions, we found that it’s unlikely that this technology could continue to work with future Windows updates.

Perhaps we could have rigged something together temporarily, but we can see the direction Microsoft is heading with their OS, and we’d be charging SpyShelter users money for a feature that could be discontinued by Microsoft at any time.

On top of this, the technique that needs to be used to effectively encrypt the keyboard also looks like malware to Windows Security, and other antivirus software, so our app would most likely be blocked by Microsoft and others. From an ethical point of view, charging SpyShelter fans money for something that Microsoft, or other security apps can block any time didn’t feel right to us, so we made the difficult decision to terminate keyboard encryption inside SpyShelter 15.

So now SpyShelter has no antikeylogger capabilities?

One thing that made this decision easier for us is that we feel confident our new SpyShelter 15 security features should give you adequate protection from keyloggers, and other spyware. For example, in SpyShelter 15 go to the “Protection” tab, and you’ll see our threat protection should detect and automatically quarantine keyloggers that try to start. Then on top of this our Application Controls should prevent keyloggers from starting in the first place.

Our anti-screenshot technology still exists in SpyShelter also under our “Protection” tab.

Are you putting anything in the place of keyboard encryption?

After our beta release came out, many SpyShelter fans requested webcam/mic detection, and we’re working on adding a modern version of that technology that will work well on Windows 10/11, and going forward. We plan to release that in place of keyboard encryption.
