Security is a top priority in any Go application, and monitoring failed login attempts is a critical aspect of protecting user accounts and preventing unauthorized access. By tracking failed login attempts, you can proactively detect potential security breaches, block suspicious activities, and safeguard your users’ sensitive information.
Saashound, a powerful real-time event tracking tool, provides seamless monitoring for failed logins in your Go application. By integrating Saashound directly into your application, you can effortlessly track failed login attempts in real-time and receive timely alerts whenever such incidents occur.
To begin monitoring failed logins in your Go application using Saashound, follow these simple steps:
Integrating Saashound into your Go application is straightforward. Use the following code snippet to start tracking failed login attempts. Remember to replace API_TOKEN
with your actual Saashound API token and update the project name to match your project.
package main
import ( "bytes" "encoding/json" "fmt" "net/http")
func logEvent() { apiURL := "https://api.saashound.co/log-event" payload := map[string]interface{}{ "project": "project-name", "channel": "security-logs", "event": "Failed Login Attempt", "description": "Failed login attempt for user 'john_doe'.", "icon": "🚫", "notify": true }
payloadBytes, err := json.Marshal(payload) if err != nil { fmt.Println("Error marshaling payload:", err) return }
req, err := http.NewRequest("POST", apiURL, bytes.NewReader(payloadBytes)) if err != nil { fmt.Println("Error creating request:", err) return }
req.Header.Set("Content-Type", "application/json") req.Header.Set("Authorization", "Bearer API_TOKEN")
client := http.DefaultClient resp, err := client.Do(req) if err != nil { fmt.Println("Error sending request:", err) return } defer resp.Body.Close()
if resp.StatusCode >= 200 && resp.StatusCode < 300 { fmt.Println("Log event sent successfully!") } else { fmt.Println("Failed to send log event. Response code:", resp.StatusCode) }}
func main() { logEvent()}
