| Abstract/Description: | A system for authenticating access to a data processing device or database is provided. The system includes a comparison module for comparing an attempt identifier with an account identifier, and a state-determining module for determining a state variable associated with at least one of the attempt identifier and the account identifier. The statedetermining module determines the state variable by incrementing the state variable if the attempt identifier does not match the account identifier and if the state variable is less than a predetermined upper bound threshold, decrementing the state variable if the attempt identifier does match the account identifier and if the state variable is greater than a predetermined lower bound threshold, and authenticating the attempt identifier if the attempt identifier does match the account identifier and if the state variable equals the predetermined lower bound threshold. | |
