How To Review Activity That Is Unusual for This Site With BetterShield?

1 min read

Use the Overview to spot failed sign-ins or task timing that differs sharply from this site's recent pattern.

In BetterShield, Unusual for this site can appear on BetterShield › Overview when selected activity falls well outside the site’s recent pattern.

What it does

BetterShield compares failed sign-ins and scheduled-task timing with the preceding 30 days of this site’s own observations. The result says that activity is unusual here. It does not establish intent or identify a cause.

Step 1: Review Activity That Is Unusual for This Site

No separate switch is required. The site needs enough recent observations to form a baseline.

BetterShield Overview area where unusual-for-this-site signals appear with other audit and activity context.
Released BetterShield controls shown with example site data. Read the current values on your own site.

Open the linked activity records and compare them with expected traffic, maintenance, and automation. Treat the signal as a prompt to investigate.

What it can break and how to undo

The comparison is read-only. It does not block sign-ins or scheduled work. There is no protection to undo.

Final Outcome

When a signal appears, its link should open the related activity. Normal activity should continue to be recorded whether or not the card is present.
