django-axes
is a very simple way for you to keep track of failed login
attempts, both for the Django admin and for the rest of your site. The name is
sort of a geeky pun, since axes
can be read interpreted as:
- "access", as in monitoring access attempts
- "axes", as in tools you can use hack (generally on wood). In this case,
however, the "hacking" part of it can be taken a bit further:
django-axes
is intended to help you stop people from hacking (popular media definition) your website. Hilarious, right? That's what I thought too!
