Jeepers Peepers: WP Syslog

Jeepers Peepers provides an extensible interface for recording WordPress events — user logins, file uploads, post deletions, etc. — to a standard system log.

The resulting audit trail can then be incorporated into powerful log-monitoring tools like OSSEC for pre-emptive protection and, in the unfortunate event of a hack, used as a vital reference in the post-mortem investigation.

The following events are automatically logged:

• Content: wp_die() triggered;
• Content: attachment deleted;
• Content: attachment sideloaded;
• Content: attachment uploaded;
• Content: post deleted;
• Content: post published;
• Network: GET, HEAD, POST, etc., requests;
• Plugin: activated;
• Plugin: deactivated;
• Plugin: upgraded;
• User: deleted;
• User: login banned (via Apocalypse Meow);
• User: login failed;
• User: login succeeded;
