Where is the best place to analyze logs for identifying multiple failed login attempts?

Analyzing logs for identifying multiple failed login attempts is best performed in the Event Viewer. The Event Viewer is a built-in Windows tool that allows administrators and security professionals to view and analyze event logs generated by the operating system and applications. It specifically tracks security events, including failed login attempts, which can be crucial for detecting potential security incidents such as brute force attacks or unauthorized access attempts.

The Event Viewer categorizes events and provides detailed information about each one, including timestamps, usernames attempted, and the reasons for failures. This capability makes it an essential tool for investigating security incidents and maintaining overall system integrity.

The other options do not serve the same purpose. The Activity Viewer is not a standard term recognized in Windows environments; it might be confused with other activity monitoring tools that do not directly focus on login events. Chrome and Safari are web browsers, which do not log system-level security events like failed login attempts; their logs pertain primarily to web activities and browser-specific errors rather than operating system security incidents. Therefore, the Event Viewer is the most appropriate and effective tool for this type of log analysis.
