Automatically locked user accounts

The Oracle Central Coding application is configured to allow a defined number of attempts to log in correctly. When a user exceeds the number of allowed log in attempts, which is defined on the System Configuration page in environments with native authentication, the user account is locked out for a specified time interval and the user cannot log in. When the time interval elapses, the user can log in again.

This security feature is controlled by the following settings on the System Configuration page:

• Super user lockout timeout—Length of consecutive time before an automatically locked super user account is unlocked.
• Non-Super user lockout timeout—Length of consecutive time before an automatically locked non-super user account is unlocked.
