Security Features
12.7.1.2
Password Protection against Brute Force Attacks
Brute force attacks are attempts made by a computer program to crack the password of anoth-
er program or tool, by trying all possible combinations of letters and numbers.
To protect against unauthorized access, remote access logon to WBM is monitored. Users are
permitted five attempts over five minutes to enter the correct password. If this time expires or
the password is entered incorrectly five times, remote access is blocked.
The system’s event log records the password input attempts.
12.7.1.3
Logon With User Name and Password
Security
To ensure that authorized users have access to the HiPath 3000 and to prevent unauthorized
access, users must be identified by a user name and authorized by a password. This applies
to all local and remote administration and maintenance procedures using HiPath 3000/5000
Manager E, Assistant T, HiPath 3000/5000 Manager C, Manager TC, and AMHOST.
After the first system startup and during country initialization, you can select between the fol-
lowing security options:
●
variable password (default)
●
