limitphp Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Sessions go away after the browser is closed. So it probably wont help. I guess, what I'm trying to protect against, is someone using some kind of autobot constantly submitting until the password checks out. This is on my myaccount.php page.....so, they would have had to stolen someone's cookie to get there to begin with...and then run the autotry script or whatever....

Sudden Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Ok...I was thinking storing info in sessions, and then testing it against them later. Which wont work. But your idea seems to be plausable.

haku Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 I guess, what I'm trying to protect against, is someone using some kind of autobot constantly submitting until the password checks out. The best way to do this is to enforce strict passwords on your site. Require a combination of letters, numbers and symbols, and have a minimum length of 6 or so characters.
