Best answer
Right option is (a) Keylogger

For explanation I would say: Keyloggers are surveillance programs developed for both security purpose as well as done for hacking passwords and other personal credentials and information. This type of programs actually saves the keystrokes done using a keyboard and then sends the recorded keystroke file to the creator of such programs.
