Lockout Protocol

Lockout Protocol is a security feature that temporarily blocks access to an account after multiple unsuccessful login attempts. Its purpose is to prevent unauthorized users from guessing passwords through repeated tries. Once the lockout is triggered, the account remains inaccessible for a specified period or until verified through additional authentication methods. This helps protect sensitive information from brute-force attacks while encouraging users to create strong, memorable passwords. Overall, it enhances security by limiting the chances of unauthorized access due to password guessing.
