Abstract	With the help of the increasing reliance on the digital systems,cybersecurity threat and such as keyloggers have evolved in to many cyber attacks and with the help of many sophisticated tools which are capable of teaching their user about privacy and data security. So we are presenting this paper for the implementation of an advanced software-based keylogger designed to operate the stealthily in a windows environment.The system we developed that captures the keystrokes, also captures the time of the keystrokes, and also captures the mouse logging and stores data locally with email-based transmission.The performance of the proposed tool is evacuated based on memory footprint,CPU usage and the detection rate through the multiple security problems. The result also indicate that the implemented keylogger demonstrates low resource usage and effective stealth behaviour, making it a potent surveillance tools.The research not only highlight the technical feasibility of building such systems but also underscores the legal responsibilities and the ethical hacking associated with cybersecurity research. Potential countermeasures and enhancements for detection are also discussed.
