About This Project

TypeTrace is an educational simulator written with Python's Tkinter that shows how keystroke loggers work and why they are dangerous.

It is a safe, sandboxed demonstration built to teach others the mechanics behind keylogging attacks — for learning, not for real-world use.

Problem

Most people don't understand how keystroke loggers operate, which makes them easier to fall victim to.

Why I Built It

To turn the social-engineering and toolkit concepts from the EDUNET internship into a hands-on teaching tool.

What I Learned

Key Takeaways

Tkinter UI development, event handling, and communicating security concepts through demos.
