Setting the Max Allowed Failed Logins for EMC Access

MFA adheres to the following EMC account lock out setting:

1. Select the Enterprise, click Setup, click Enterprise Parameters, and then click the Login tab.

2. From the Options section, set the value for the Maximum Allowed Failed Logins field.

After reaching the failed login threshold (based on entering an invalid EMC user or OTP password), users are notified that their login was rejected by the system and that their account is currently locked out.

To assign a new user’s EMC password (or to reset a password due to an account being locked out):

1. Select the Enterprise level, click Configuration, and then click Employee Maintenance.
2. Search for the employee record that requires editing.
3. Click the Password button and enter a password in the New Password field. Re-enter the email address in the Confirm Password field and click Accept.

   No entry is required in the Current Password field, as it is inaccessible.

   When the user attempts their next EMC login, the system prompts them to enter a new password (known only to that user).
