# Mac OS X Keylogger
|
|
|
|
This repository holds the code for a simple and easy to use keylogger for Mac OS X. It is not meant to be malicious, and is written as a proof of concept. There is not a lot of information on keyloggers or implementing them on Mac OS X, and most of the ones I've seen do not work as indicated. This project aims to be a simple implementation on how it can be accomplished on OS X.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
Start by cloning the repository and running the proper make commands, shown below. By default, the application installs to `/usr/local/bin/keylogger`.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ git clone https://github.com/caseyscarborough/keylog && cd keylog
|
|
$ make
|
|
$ make install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The application by default logs to `/var/log/keystroke.log`, which may require root access depending on your system's permissions. You can change this in [`keylogger.h`](https://github.com/caseyscarborough/keylog/blob/master/keylogger.h#L14) if necessary.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ sudo keylogger
|
|
Logging to: /var/log/keystroke.log
|
|
```
