Hi!
I'd like to prevent brute force attacks on the login page of my wicket
application. What would be the best approach? This is what I'm thinking
about doing: Record when the last request for the loginpage from a
certain IP came in and only handle the request when at least a second or
two

Hello Johannes,
that's a good topic you've got here...
I agree to Korbinian that locking out IPs is a bad idea. One could
extend that to the combination of username/IP, but that could be worked
around with a more sofisticated script.
What do you think about logging false logins on a per-user
isn't this more the responsibility for the hardware/software that runs wicket?So Apache or WebLogic itself? That does the throttling?I wouldn't try to solve this in a webapplication. johan

I guess that depends... I think you have to let the webapplication
handle it if you want to prevent brute force dictionary attacks on the
login page only. Especially if you want to do this on a per username
basis or even use captchas (thanks Pierre-Yves).
I don't think the hardware or the

Hello Rüdiger,
What do you think about logging false logins on a per-user basis, and
delay the response after the first false attempt by a couple of seconds
until another valid login for that user happened? I think the Linux
shell login works like that.
That's not a bad idea... that would
