Beyond the pale
Lay a sheet of aluminum foil over the keyboard. Most cats don't like walking on foil.

You can also lay down foil around the computer, over the entire desk area. Then the cat will learn not to go there.

I understand you have an iMac, so you could get a Bluetooth keyboard that you can turn off if not in use or you could then change the Bluetooth settings so that it's not allowed to wake the computer from sleep (at least I saw that setting somewhere)
