Track failed login attempts from system logs using Python.
log_file = "/var/log/auth.log"
failed_count = 0
with open(log_file) as f:
for line in f:
if "Failed password" in line:
failed_count += 1
print(f"⚠️ Total failed logins: {failed_count}")
This helps detect potential brute-force attacks safely.
