can this software be used as a spy software - (give others access to my key strokes)?
Hello  and Welcome to the Webroot Community Forums!

I hope this is what you were asking

 

WSA has anti key logging technology built in.  Click on the gear/cog to the right of the Identity Protection tab abd take a look at what it covers under 'Onliine Protection'.

And you can also protect application specifically under the Application Protection tab.  Please see this KB article that explains the terms/type of protection, and look specifically at the section " Identity & Privacy > Protected Applications".

The Identity Shield protects all the details you share with an internet bank. It protects

information like login details, passwords, account numbers, credit card details and

personal information such as addresses, dates of birth etc. It also adds a second layer of

protection against highly targeted banking and information stealing Trojans to ensure your

identity and online activities are fully secure.

Webroot SecureAnywhere protects you in these ways:

• Identifies if a website you visit is the genuine site making sure it’s not a false

banking (phishing) site

• Ensures your login information is only entered into the website it’s intended

for

• Protects your personal information, even if there’s already unidentified

malicious software on your PC

• Automatically protects your web browser, cookies and saved website data

• Prevents browser attacks from keyloggers and screengrabbers that try to

peer into your banking activity

• Protects clipboard data from theft and stops URL grabbing attacks

• Blocks browser modification attempts and any suspicious access to browser

windows
