Abstract
The present invention discloses a user login monitoring device and method. The method comprises: acquiring a latest user login record list of a user, wherein each of the user login records comprises information associated with the login location of the user; determining a frequently-used login location of the user according to the user login record list, and when the number of the user login records with a same login location is not less than a first threshold, determining the login location as the frequently-used login location of the user; and marking a user login record with a different login location from the frequently-used login location as abnormal. The frequently-used login location of the user can be automatically determined without the participation of the user, and the abnormal login record can be determined and marked by using the present invention so as to facilitate the user to check or remind the user, thus the security of the user account is improved. Moreover, in some special cases, it can be determined accurately whether a user login is abnormal according to the present invention, thus the accuracy is increased and the false alarm rate is lowered.
