Every edition: turned away
How we measure
Login attempts are POST requests to login, session or password paths. Failed logins are those whose response (captured on routes where a team turned response capture on) says the credentials were wrong. "Turned away" counts requests blocked or sent to the bot gym by NiceTryBot, and requests the site itself refused with a 429 because it had already banned the sender. IP addresses are shown with their second half hidden.
Most refused
The addresses turned away most often, second half hidden.
