Security Settings

The Security Settings tab allows configuration in preventing automated attacks and password‐guessing attempts by locking out people who repeatedly provide incorrect login details. You can specify the number of times that users may attempt to log in, and the length of time for which users who exceed this number of login attempts are locked out.

When a user is locked out, login attempts from the user’s IP address are not allowed. The amount of time that the user must wait before trying again displays.

You can also set a time delay for the login screen. When you do this, a user who has provided incorrect login details must wait the specified number of seconds before being able to attempt to log in again.
