Put Country into the notification message

Paul Roth shared this idea 9 years ago
Open Discussion

When setting up the configuration for Brute Force Protection, the option "Send a notification when the system detects a brute force user " we receive the IP address in the message (the email to the root user gets the country along with the country). is it possible to get/add the country in the message I receive on my phone/notification.


Thanks,

Paul

How would you use this information?

Based on the notification, if I see a number of hack (login) attempts coming from a specific country we don't usually have people using our server I can block the country in our firewall. The email being sent specifies the country but its not highlighted and hard to find/see (since the format change). Also, it's quicker to see the message on my phone than view the email.


Thanks,

Paul
