*Strategies to set Wait Time*
Keycloak provides two strategies to calculate wait time: By multiples or Linear. By multiples is the first strategy introduced by keycloak, so that is the default one.
{project_name} provides two strategies to calculate wait time: By multiples or Linear. By multiples is the first strategy introduced by {project_name}, so that is the default one.
With by multiples strategy wait time will be incremented when number (or count) of failures are multiple of `Max Login Failure`. For instance, if you have set `Max Login Failures` to `5` and a `Wait Increment` of `30` seconds, the effective time an account will be disabled after several failed authentication attempts will be:
By multiples strategy, wait time is incremented when the number (or count) of failures are multiples of `Max Login Failure`. For instance, if you set `Max Login Failures` to `5` and a `Wait Increment` to `30` seconds, the effective time that an account is disabled after several failed authentication attempts will be:

Note that the `Effective Wait Time` at the 5th failed attempt will disable the account for `30` seconds. Only after reaching the next multiple of `Max Login Failures`, in this case `10`, will the time increase from `30` to `60`. The time the account will be disabled is only increased when reaching multiples of `Max Login Failures`.
At the fifth failed attempt of the `Effective Wait Time`, the account is disabled for `30` seconds. After reaching the next multiple of `Max Login Failures`, in this case `10`, the time increases from `30` to `60` seconds.
The by multiple strategy uses the following formula to calculate wait time: _Wait Increment_ * (`count` / _Max Login Failures_). The division is an integer division rounded down to a whole number.

With linear strategy wait time will be incremented when number (or count) of failures are equal to or greater than `Max Login Failure`.

Note that the `Effective Wait Time` at the 5th failed attempt will disable the account for `30` seconds. Each new failed attempt will increase wait time.
At the fifth failed attempt for the `Effective Wait Time`, the account is disabled for `30` seconds. Each new failed attempt increases wait time.
The linear strategy uses the following formula to calculate wait time: _Wait Increment_ * (1 + `count` - _Max Login Failures_).
