Step Description
Click the IronKey Virtual Key-
board icon.
The IronKey Virtual Keyboard will
appear. Alternatively, you can press
CTRL + ALT + V
Click on the keys to type out
your password. Click on ‘Enter’
when you are finished.
Note that you can use the IronKey Virtual Keyboard
in conjunction with the actual keyboard if you wish, so
that some characters are typed and some are clicked.
3 You can optionally click the
“Randomize” button to random-
ize where the keys are. This helps
protect against screenloggers.
Notice that when you click on a key in the Virtual Key-
board, all of the keys will go blank. This is a protection
that prevents screenloggers from capturing what you
clicked on.
If you do not wish to use this protection, simple dis-
able it in the options menu next to the close button.
You can also have the Virtual Keyboard automatically
launch when it encounters password fields. This too is
configured in the options menu.

prompted to close it.
