Review privileged-user access, recent logins, active sessions, password-change visibility, supported MFA status, Site Health and aggregated 404 activity from one dashboard. ### Key Features * Privileged-user access visibility for roles that can make meaningful website changes. * Latest successful login visibility after installation. * Current active WordPress session counts for eligible users. * Observed password-change dates and local password-strength estimates. * Supported MFA status visibility without collecting MFA secrets. * Site Health summary with a link to WordPress’s native Site Health screen. * Aggregated 404 monitoring with accurate daily and seven-day request totals. * Privacy-conscious local operation with no telemetry, login IP storage or password copies. 404 request totals are maintained as small daily aggregates, so the Dashboard’s today and seven-day totals remain accurate without retaining individual requests. Login and password-change metadata is recorded only after Admin Watch Central observes the relevant event. MFA status is available only for supported authentication providers and may show “Not detected” when status cannot be reliably determined. Active Session counts are read from current WordPress core session state for eligible users and are not stored by Admin Watch Central. Admin Watch Central does not create or store its own copies of passwords or password hashes. It also does not store password history, login IP addresses, login history, session tokens, session metadata, MFA secrets, referrers, telemetry, external APIs, alerts or redirect tools. Free focuses on visibility; advanced actions, alerts, policies and history are planned separately for Admin Watch Central Pro. ## Screenshots [⌊Admin Watch Central dashboard showing Site Health, privileged-user access, active sessions, recent logins and 404 activity.⌉⌊Admin Watch Central dashboard showing Site Health, privileged-user access, active sessions, recent logins and 404 activity .⌉[ Admin Watch Central dashboard showing Site Health, privileged-user access, active sessions, recent logins and 404 activity.
