Title
The Ivanti MobileIron Core server must enforce the limit of three consecutive invalid logon attempts by a user during a 15-minute time period. (Cat II impact)
Discussion
By limiting the number of failed login attempts, the risk of unauthorized system access via user password guessing, otherwise known as brute forcing, is reduced. Limits are imposed by locking the account. Satisfies: FMT_SMF.1(2)b. Reference: PP-MDM-431028
