CS361 Spyware project

1. Development done in python3, so install python3
2. install pip3 for dependencies
3. pip3 install -r requirements.txt
4. run with parameters. python3 main.py -h
5. use python3 main.py --output_dir $PWD for development, it saves screenshots locally.

AWS S3 support - this is where the spyware will send the data

1. To run using s3, please set ACCESS_KEY_ID and ACCESS_SECRET_KEY environmental variables to whatever credentials you generated on AWS

export ACCESS_KEY_ID=AWEUFDADSJHDGJAS <- replace this
export ACCESS_SECRET_KEY=FARUEWRJEWHRJEQFIQEWJFWJQE@#$@#! <- replace this

2. install aws-cli

3. now run aws configure

4. enter your access keys

5. make a bucket aws s3 mb s3://cs361p-spyware

6. run python3 main.py --s3_bucket cs361p-spyware

7. cleanup bucket aws s3 rb s3://cs361p-spyware --force

Ideas to work on

1. someone figure out how to run this script upon computer restart and login.
2. Keylogging feature. I was thinking after 10 seconds of no typing, make a new line in the file Note: we need to have the datetime at the beginning of each line in the keylogging file.
3. Add any other feature you think of !
