Default USB device that can send keystrokes?

For some security testing, I am looking for a USB device that can send
pre-programmed key strokes
when plugged-into the USB port. Any suggestions?

I want something that doesn't require a software/script to be loaded
on the computer.

Something along the lines of WiebeTech's MouseJiggler
http://www.wiebetech.com/products/MouseJiggler.php , where it just
sends the mouse commands without loading any software.

Or maybe a programmable keyboard that can send keystroke as soon as it
is connected, without requiring any software/script to be loaded.
Obviously this device would require a built-in processor and some
memory.

something like "ghostscript" would fit the bill, no?

Do you want to use the USB to pretend it is a keyboard?

Nope.

I need a programmable USB device that pretend that it is a keyboard
and send keystrokes.

Perhaps if you look for companies that make "USB protocol analyzers",
you'll find a generator or stimulus package.

with too many groups set, without using Followup.)

Should those be pre-programmed sequences of keystrokes, or just random ones?

If those are supposed to be random keystrokes, you could simply modify a
USB keyboard: add a controler for random signals to the keyboard
controler, and it should send random keystrokes.

If you need pre-programmed keystrokes, things would be more tricky.
A friend of mine builds self-made USB devices with microcontrollers.
If you have the know-how, you could do this yourself or, program the
controler to produce keystrokes in a sequential order to use with a
keyboard controller from a USB keyboard.

That aside, I've never heard of something like a keystroke-generator,
that is *not* installed into a keyboard.

(Also, this Mouse-Jiggler-thing seems ridiculously purpose-less)

..snip ..

I know what you mean, but have never seen one. Although i'm sure it exists,
and the mouse jiggler thing you mentioned does have is uses. Especially if
you want to bypass 'you get paid to surf' ****.

Yea we used to build these in school for sending keystrokes to Intel
Explorer and 8086 boards. :-) However, I longer have the know how,
equipment or time to build these devices, so I was wondering if there
are any off the shelf device that can do this for me

(yea I know I am being lazy....)
