Security Limit Exceeded

Persons attempting to access the service will receive the message “Security Limit Exceeded. Please Contact Local Administrator” when more than a preset number of attempts to access an account occur with an incorrect password. As an Internet based service, this locking feature prevents a brute force attempt to guess an account password by disabling access.

Clearing the Security Lockout

The security lock out may be cleared for any account by any local administrator by performing the following steps:

  1. Sign in using an administrator account
  2. Navigate to Accounts / List
  3. Select the account by clicking the Last Name value for the account
  4. On the account edit page that appears, enter a password into the password field
  5. Press Save

The account password will be changed to the newly entered value and the security limit will be reset.
