Description:

Use this bundle to mitigate brute force dictionary attacks on your sites. Excessive failed logins will force users to recover their account, additional attempts to circumvent that will block the user from specified webpages by returning an HTTP 500 response on all specified routes.

You can use this bundle with any User Bundle you like.

This bundle does NOT provide user registration/login/logout etc features. This bundle is for brute force dictionary attack mitigation only. Use this bundle in conjunction with your preferred user bundle.
