Can someone hack through TeamViewer?

ladlamuzamil

I have been doing business with someone on Fiverr. The person's help was really good, but I have concerns that they could potentially hack through TeamViewer. I never leave sight of my PC and I follow every click that is made with the mouse.

However, is there a way that someone can hack without my knowledge? Is there a way for them to control my mouse on their end and make it appear as if my mouse pointer isn't moving on my end?I make sure to completely log off and lock my PC after each session, however I am not sure how to check if my PC has been hacked without my knowledge.

Hi ladlamuzamil,

Thank you for contacting us, and welcome to the Community.

We always concerned about security, as it is our highest priority.

It is difficult to identify whether you've been hacked or not at this stage.

All connections will be recorded automatically on a log file - to be specific, it logs incoming connections.

You can find the log from location and file names below. Please confirm all incoming connections on the log file.

Location:

(32 bit) %ProgramFiles(x86)%\TeamViewer

(64 bit) %ProgramFiles%\TeamViewer

Filename:

Connections_incoming.txt

For more information regarding security, please check our knowledge articles.

Hope the information above will be helpful.

Best Regards,

Akiho
