Azure Active Directory Smart Lockout

Posted on September 15, 2021

You can customize the Azure AD smart lockout values. Customization of the smart lockout settings, with values specific to the organization, requires Azure AD Premium P1 or higher licenses for your users.

  1. Sign in to the Azure portal using a Global administrator account.
  2. Open the portal menu and then select Azure Active Directory.
  3. On the Azure Active Directory blade, under Manage, select Security.
  4. On the Security blade, in the left navigation, select Authentication methods.
  5. In the left navigation, select Password protection.

  1. In the Password protection settings, in the Lockout duration in seconds box, set the value to 120.
  2. Next to Mode, select Enforced.
  3. Save your changes.

Note

When the smart lockout threshold is triggered, you will get the following message while the account is locked:

Your account is temporarily locked to prevent unauthorized use. Try again later, and if you still have trouble, contact your admin.
