Why Choose This Project
Failed login attempts are often the first sign of malicious activity, including brute-force attacks, credential stuffing, or phishing attempts. Monitoring and analyzing these incidents in real time is crucial for enhancing cybersecurity, preventing account compromise, and enforcing organizational security policies. This project provides a web-based dashboard that logs all failed login attempts, categorizes them, and provides actionable insights for administrators.
What You Get
A secure platform where admins can view, analyze, and respond to failed login attempts. The system logs detailed information including username, IP address, device/browser info, timestamp, and geolocation. Administrators can set alerts, generate reports, and visualize trends to quickly detect and mitigate security threats.
