    Hi all,

     

    Do we have any assertion where we can do this

    block further logins for the same user after invalid attempts for a particular time.

    Pavan,

     

    The below documentation will walk you through on how to control things such as lockout attempts, lockout time, etc...

    Let us know if this answers the question.
