What happens if someone uses a keylogger to hijack someone's account?

There is no way to retrive one’s data if one’s account details are compromised or lost correct? And even if one sets up account recovery with a third party that’s of limited use.

Or the gov’t could get ahold of your machine somehow, or it could otherwise be co…

Dual layer login to resist keyloggers

Could this stop a keyloging attack?

When someone signs into their account, random pictures could be generated. That person would then look for their predetermined picture. Below that picture would be a randomly generated pass code. That pass code would then be a one time use code used to login to their account.
