#Root Cause#

  • This is expected behaviour.
  • This issue is caused when there are three unsuccessful attempts back to back.
  • By unsuccessful attempts, when the user is trying to login and if the password is incorrect then after 5 retries the user will be blocked for 15 min.
  • When the user repeats the above process 3 times then we lock him for 7 days
