# Regulation
**Authelia** can temporarily ban accounts when there was too many
authentication attempts. This helps prevent brute force attacks.
## Configuration
```yaml
regulation:
# The number of failed login attempts before user is banned.
# Set it to 0 to disable regulation.
max_retries: 3
# The time range during which the user can attempt login before being banned.
# The user is banned if the authentication failed `max_retries` times in a `find_time` seconds window.
find_time: 120
# The length of time before a banned user can sign in again.
ban_time: 300
```
