Description
This rule detects when a user attempts to log into the Drupal, and fails to authenticate properly. This is either because the user, or password or both are wrong.
Authentication is controlled by Drupal, and disabling this rule will not allow the user to log in. Disabling this rule will prevent the software from both alerting when failed logins occur, and also detecting brute force attacks against Drupal.
