re: "mitigating the chances of a full bruit force attack by a limit of 30 lookups a minute." Not really - the attacker could do 100 requests. Each request might take 2 seconds but it doesn't stop the number of requests done. You need to stop processing more than one request every 2 seconds rather than delay it by 2 seconds on each execution. ---- Server IP: 72.52.91.14 Probable Submitter: 198.144.104.19 (proxied: 91.226.23.192) ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.sleep.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/114841 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114841/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114841/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114841/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114841/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114841/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114841/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114841 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/114841 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
