Click the Manage exclusions link in the Categories window to create lists of websites on which you want to enable or disable Secure Keyboard Input irrespective of the selected website categories. You can use masks when adding exclusions.

On-Screen Keyboard

Many programs classified as spyware can take screenshots, which then are automatically transmitted to an intruder for further analysis to steal the user's personal data. On-Screen Keyboard protects entered personal data from attempts to intercept it by means of screenshots. (For more details, please refer to About On-Screen Keyboard).

To make sure that On-Screen Keyboard is enabled, you must restart your computer after installing Kaspersky Internet Security.

You can choose how you will be able to open On-Screen Keyboard:

  • Open On-Screen Keyboard by pressing CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+P.
  • Show quick launch icon in data entry fields. The On-Screen Keyboard quick launch icon is displayed in the password input fields on web pages.

Click the Edit categories link to open the Categories window. In this window, you can specify on which websites the quick launch icon for On-Screen Keyboard should be displayed.

Click the Manage exclusions link in the Categories window to create lists of websites on which you want to enable or disable display of the On-Screen Keyboard quick launch icon irrespective of the selected website categories. You can use masks when adding exclusions.

Show password strength in browser

If the check box is selected, Kaspersky Internet Security checks the strength of a password that you are entering in the browser for the first time, and notifies you about it.

Protect against using the same passwords

 

When you enter a password on a website where password security is especially important (such as on a social network), Kaspersky Internet Security prompts you to enable protection against the use of the same passwords.

If the Warn about using the same passwords on websites check box is selected, protection against using the same passwords is enabled. You can select the categories of websites that should be protected from using the same passwords. These categories include banks and payment system websites, social networking websites, and mail service websites.

You can click the Delete saved data link to delete all previously saved passwords.
