Description

This plugin logs security breach attempts and displays them for review by an administrator. Presently, two types of security breaches are logged: all error 404 attempts (which include phishing attempts looking for vulnerable PHP libraries such as “timthumb.php”) and all failed login attempts (which include serial password attempts).
