Ardamax Keylogger – a tool used for capturing any kind of information you type on your keyboard

Ardamax Keylogger virus is a spyware-based program that collects keyboard strokes.

Ardamax Keylogger virus is a program that causes malevolent activity^[1] because it is designed to record users' keystrokes using legitimate Ardamax software.

The latest version costs more than 60€ and allows the admin to see every keystroke on the targeted system, capture chats, use visual surveillance, or even use the microphone to record audio. However, the program manages to hide and silently monitor the victim’s computer activity without being detected.
