Ghacks.net Review - ScreenWings is an anti-screenshot tool - gHacks Tech News

We tried a variety of programs, the snipping tool, print-key, and SnagIt, and the program managed to detect them all properly and protect the screen from being captured. This worked regardless of the selection mode (including fullscreen and auto-saving options).

There is no guarantee obviously that ScreenWings will block any malicious process from capturing the screen but it seems to work well.

For an additional layer of defense against screen spying you can use a google chrome extension called DECODELIA that can make your whole screen indecipherable to the public unless they have red tinted glasses. ;)

Here's the question: does this program make it easy to whitelist legitimate programs? if it doesn't, it's not worth the trouble.
 
I'm not against in those standalone program however because of too simple and lack of operation, hence any AV may improve more instead on anti-keylogger functionalities thus practical.
