Is it possible to detect a keylogger built in the firmware of a
keyboard? Do all keyboards have firmware? What if the keyboard does not
have macros or extra keys or special keys (beyond blank keycaps)? Could
the USB cable itself be a keylogger?
How would you go about detecting that?

Possible, unlikely, and for the most part undetectable. One of the strongest arguments for two-factor authentication. Then a key logger of any type isn't a compromised account.<BR>
