Re: [keycloak-user] Brut force attack questions

By default user sessions (and login failures) are stored in-memory not in the database. Unless you specify JPA for the userSession provider those tables will stay empty. You could either do what you're trying to do, which should work if you use the jpa userSession provider. The other if you're worried about the performance of storing user sessions in the db is to use the Infinispan provider, then you can manually delete login failures from the userSession cache from another application. We should add a mechanism to both view and remove login-failure entries to the admin console though. ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Alexander Chriztopher" <alexander.chriztopher(a)gmail.com&gt; > To: "Bill Burke" <bburke(a)redhat.com&gt;, keycloak-user(a)lists.jboss.org > Sent: Wednesday, 26 November, 2014 9:45:42 AM > Subject: Re: [keycloak-user] Brut force attack questions > > Am to find a workaround in order to be able to unlock a user account.
