        What security features are on the user login?

HorizonWeb 4.1 onwards.

HorizonWeb uses cookies to improve the login experience.

First-time users are given three chances to login with their username and password. After three failed attempts, they will be asked to complete a CAPTCHA question too.

Users who have logged in successfully, are given five attempts before they need to complete a CAPTCHA.
