brute-force-protection

Protect login endpoints by combining per-account and per-IP rate limiting, progressive delay lockouts, CAPTCHA challenges, and MFA enforcement to harden authentication flows against credential stuffing and password spraying attacks.

Account lockout policies are best implemented using hard or soft lockouts with progressive delays and optional CAPTCHA challenges, applying configurable thresholds across login, password reset, and PIN entry flows to throttle rapid attempts.

Rate limiting for brute force attack detection applies configurable per-account and per-IP thresholds to throttle rapid authentication attempts, triggering progressive delays, lockouts, or CAPTCHA challenges when anomalous login signals are detected.

Yes, you can enforce multi-factor authentication when anomalous login signals are detected, adding a defense-in-depth layer alongside rate limiting, progressive delays, and alerting across login, password reset, and PIN entry flows.

Brute force protection applies across login, password reset, and PIN entry flows, using per-account and per-IP controls with configurable thresholds to detect and respond to attacks uniformly.

Per-account and per-IP rate limits are both needed to throttle rapid attempts from single sources and distributed attacks, combining with lockout policies and MFA enforcement for defense-in-depth against credential stuffing and account takeover.
