Python Keylogger With Built In Security Measures

builtwithsecuritypythonkeyloggermeasures
Problem
The program I have developed is currently used for detecting and recording keystrokes. I have added some built in security measures that can easily(somewhat) be modified to suit individual user needs!
I won't go into the mechanics because the Source is readily available and easily understandable! I realize that this has been done hundreds of times but I learned a lot along the way and had tons of fun! And now we start!!
Program Output File has unique formatting for easy readability. The
cases are easily editable! Current cases include:
Current security measures include:
Currently the program checks for specific rules in keystrokes to be met before using security measures, such as:
Additional Features Include:
Current Known Issues:
Includes the base Logging class only. Security, Encryption, Constants, settings, build/dist/.exe .bat can be found at GitHub!
Okay I guess there is n

Program Output File has unique formatting for easy readability. The
cases are easily editable! Current cases include:
- Errors
- Exceptions
- Special (email/password)
- Inappropriate (Pornographic etc...)
- Default (For anything else)
Current security measures include:
- Screen Capture and Webcam picture, merged with a timestamp to capture the user, the current screen, and the time! -Image Below-
- The default keyLog!
Currently the program checks for specific rules in keystrokes to be met before using security measures, such as:
- If text contains
porn, pornagraphy, sex (other explicit terms)it issues the security measure that records user and screen
- If text contains
@it expects this to be an email and therefore expects the next input to be a password! This is then denoted in the keyLog!
Additional Features Include:
- Runs silently in the background, the user can enter a specific set of input to pause, start, decrypt, encrypt, exit the logger!
- Relatively low memory usage!!!
- Encryption and Decryption of keyLogs available via custom Encryption Modules (also available for review!)
- Currently an .exe version (Although I am having several issues currently)
Current Known Issues:
- Not multi-platform compatible, Currently Only works on Windows
- Minimal checking for user camera
- Not fully documented
- There are probably a lot of code inefficiencies
- Python 2.7 dependant
Includes the base Logging class only. Security, Encryption, Constants, settings, build/dist/.exe .bat can be found at GitHub!

Solution
Suggestion:
Have a list of words that it checks for instead of hard coding the words it checks for.
The 'easiest' way would be to create something like:
Or my preferred method would be to create a .txt file with a list of words separated by newlines and reading those words from the file into a list:
And then do the following in your main file:
