Help:Login notifications/it

Ciao! Sei qui perché hai ricevuto una notifica a proposito di un tentativo di accesso alla tua utenza? Non preoccuparti! La tua utenza è ancora sicura.

Perché ho ricevuto la/e notifica/e?
Hai ricevuto una notifica perché qualcuno ha cercato (senza successo) di accedere alla tua utenza. Se il tentativo di accesso è avvenuto attraverso un dispositivo o browser che non avevi mai usato prima, allora hai ricevuto una notifica dopo il primo tentativo fallito. Se è avvenuto attraverso un dispositivo o browser già noto, allora la notifica è scattata dopo cinque tentativi.

Le notifiche sono state generate da LoginNotify, una funzionalità introdotta nel 2017.

Cosa dovrei fare?
Dovresti avere una password solida e unica per la tua utenza. Se non credi che sia così, dovresti procedere e cambiare la tua password il prima possibile. Secondo uno studio sulle password di utenze rubate, circa il 17% di 10 milioni di utenze internet hanno "123456" come password. Non essere uno di loro!

Also, it might be a good idea to associate an email address with your account in the event you lose access to your account and want to get back in. You can set your email on the first panel of your Preferences page.

How does this feature work?
The extension keeps track of known devices (browsers really) by placing a cookie in the browser. This cookie automatically expires in 180 days. If a failed login attempt happens from a new browser, it generates an Echo notification alerting the user about the login attempt. The other way that we identify known devices is by checking the current IP address subnet against the IP addresses that have been used recently (as stored in a temporary server cache). None of the information is stored in a database and at no point is any private information revealed publicly, including the attacker’s IP address/location. The WMF Legal and Security teams have reviewed the implementation for both compliance with our Privacy Policy and security considerations.

For known devices/IPs, we allow up to 5 login attempts before alerting the user about the login attempt, since it's fairly common to mistype or forget a password. If there are 5 or more failed attempts, the notification will say: "" There would be another notification at 10 attempts, 15 attempts and so on.

For unknown devices/IPs, we alert on every failed attempt. The extension bundles these notifications to avoid spamming users with too many notifications. For example, if there are 3 failed attempts from an unknown device, there will be a single notification, which says: "" On further attempts, that notification would update to say "4 failed attempts," "5 failed attempts", and so on.

Things to note
There are two ways for users to get these notifications – either by web Echo notifications or by email. By default, the web notifications are on for everyone and email ones are turned off. This is configurable in the notification preferences.

Successful logins
The extension allows you to get an email when a user logs in successfully to your account from an unfamiliar device and IP. This is especially helpful for admins or other functionaries who are concerned that their rights might be misused. This notification is off by default. Note that the web notifications are disabled for this feature. The email text says "" You can enable this in your preferences.
