Virtual Keyboard
Q: What is a virtual keyboard?
A: One of the most common security threats is from malicious software called "keyloggers" that record your keystrokes and sends them back to the account hacker. By having a virtual keyboard where you enter your password with your mouse instead of punching it in with a keyboard, you eliminate the chance that a keylogger will obtain your user information.
Q: Do we need to use the virtual keyboard when inputting the username and password?
A: No, use of the virtual keyboard is optional.
Q: What are the advantages of using the virtual keyboard?
A: The Virtual Keyboard will be an additional tool to increase the security of your logon credentials and will help protect your MyLU Account from the risk of key loggers.
Q: When does the virtual keyboard appear?
A: It only appears when you click the keyboard image beside the password field in the Play Alliance login page
Q: The keys on the screen keyboard are too small. Can I make them larger?
A: No.
Q: What characters are available in the virtual keyboard?
A: Only alpha-numerics are allowed. Please see images below.
Q: Can I still use my own keyboard to input my password even if the Virtual Keyboard is shown?
A: Yes. The use of the virtual keyboard is up to the player. The player may still use his/her own keyboard and not the virtual keyboard. However, for players who would like to exercise additional security, you may use both the real and virtual keyboard in combination when typing-in your password.
