Login Security by ThisData

ThisData is a security service that monitors for suspicious logins to your WordPress websites. When suspicious logins are detected ThisData will immediately notify the user by email, asking if the login was actually them. If the user responds to the email indicating it was not them, then the user session can be automatically terminated and a password reset email will be sent. It relies on the ThisData anomaly detection algorithms which take into account many behavioral factors including:

• Location & Velocity
• Devices
• Time of day
• Tor usage
• Risky IP addresses
• And more...

You will also benefit from having a beautiful real-time security dashboard for your WordPress website which shows who is accessing, what devices they're using and where they're located.

To complete the installation of this plugin you will need a ThisData account.

1. Get a free ThisData account at https://thisdata.com/sign-up
2. Go to your email and confirm your ThisData account using the link in the email that was just sent to you.
3. You will now see a Getting Started screen.
4. Take a copy of your ThisData API Key and Javascript Write Key. You will use them in the plugin setup.

Now install the plugin.

1. Upload the plugin files to the /wp-content/plugins/thisdata directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' screen in WordPress
3. Use the Settings->ThisData screen to configure the plugin
4. Copy your ThisData API Key and Javascript Write Key into the boxes provided and click "Save Changes"

At this stage you will now be tracking log-in, log-out, password reset and plugin installation related events to ThisData. If you log-out of WordPress and log back in you will see your login attempt in your ThisData account. Advanced setup To create a really tight security integration you can enable this plugin to end a user session and reset password when the user confirms that the suspicious activity was not them. This requires the use of webhooks from ThisData so you will need to upgrade to a paid account.

1. From your WordPress->Settings->ThisData screen copy the Alert Webhooks Path which should look like http://[your domain]/thisdata/webhook
2. In your ThisData account click on API Settings from the top nav bar and near the bottom of the screen you will see an "Internal Notifications" section.
3. Enter your Alert Webhooks Path into the ThisData Webhook Url box and click "Save API Settings"
4. Note: You don't need to enter anything for the "Secret for Webhook Signatures"

Congrats! You now have a really sophisticated anomaly detection system protecting your WordPress website. Thanks for using ThisData.
