Tracking log-in failures

Pega Platform records log-in failures (and optionally log-in successes) from any requestor type as an instance of the Log-SecurityAudit class. To obtain information about failed log-in attempts, run the standard list view rule named Log-SecurityAudit.ListOfLoginFailures. For each failed attempt, the ListOfLoginFailures report lists the time of the attempt, the server name and IP address of the system the attempt was made from, the Operator ID (if available), and the message that was returned. The pyRemoteHost property identifies the workstation or other system attempting log-in, and the pyRemoteID identifies the IP address.
