## Description

Now, “Hack-Info” – it is a standalone independent complete tool.
 Previously, it
was like Add-On for “iThemes Security”. But time has shown that it is bad to be 
dependent on others.. Especially when their DB structure changes.

“Hack-Info” make improve the perception of information about events, which is important
to quickly and in detail see and understand. Without the need for unnecessary clicks
and conversions. “Hack-Info” notifies the site administrator by providing a detailed
list of IP addresses, requests – attempts to scan resources and search for passwords
with names.

#### Features

 * An additional level of security for your site.
 * Simply, Briefly and in Detail.
 * Even without going to the site admin area, you will be informed about the activity
   of the current day.
 * Any person can be a recipient of notifications. Not necessarily the Administrator.
 * Adjustable interval for the formation of the Digest.
 * The e-mail report received contains full and detailed information about the nature
   of attempts to hack your site:
    - In cases of Brite Force, user names are displayed.
       So, one glance is enough
      for you to understand what you’re dealing with: a routine search or a targeted
      attack on an already compromised name.
    - In cases of URL scanning, requests are displayed.
 * Timely analysis of such requests allows you to draw conclusions about which Plugins,
   Themes or Scripts are vulnerable, and in time to abandon their use in their projects.
 * The information digest is compact and minimalistic, but at the same time it easily
   and visually gives a complete information picture. You do not have to go to your
   site to get more details. Therefore, even being outside the usual workspace, 
   on a slow Internet, but having the ability to read mail – you will be fully informed,
   and therefore, if necessary, you can make the necessary and fast decisions. And
   this approach is many times more effective than messages like: “To see the list
   of blocked IP addresses and to know the parameters of requests – click on the
   button …” And then, still it will be necessary to login …

## Screenshots

 * screenshot-2.png This is an example of a report – notifications from iThemes 
   Security plugin. A lot of unnecessary information. And there is absolutely no
   details. To see the details, you need to go to the site, login and open the logs.
   Most people never do this. Just because it’s laziness.
