Login History

Key Takeaway

Login History is a Setup page that records every attempt to log in to your Salesforce org and your Experience Cloud sites. Its records let admins spot unusual access and troubleshoot failed logins.

Standard auditing features

Login History is one of the standard auditing features, alongside Setup Audit Trail and Field History Tracking. Each of these features audits something different:

Auditing feature	What it tracks
Login History	Login attempts
Setup Audit Trail	Changes to your Salesforce configuration
Field History Tracking	Value changes in selected fields

Auditing features like Login History don't secure your org by themselves, so someone in your org should review them regularly for unexpected usage or abuse.

You need Salesforce Shield for real-time monitoring, longer data retention, and automatic policy enforcement. Salesforce Shield is an add-on subscription that includes Event Monitoring, Real-Time Events, and Transaction Security.
