00:01 | User1 has second unsuccessful password attempt. |
00:02 | User1 has third unsuccessful password attempt. |
00:03 | User1 has fourth unsuccessful password attempt. CAS locks the password method for this user for 30 minutes. |
00:25 | User1 submits a password attempt (either with correct or incorrect password). CAS ignores the request because the method is locked. |
00:33 | CAS unlocks the password method for the user and resets the number of unsuccessful password attempts. |
00:56 | User1 completes password authentication. |
