Authentication​

All authentication endpoints such as login, registration, and recovery are subjected to strict limitations to prevent bruteforce attack vectors.

Services​

Some services might implement global limits to reduce workload pressure or resource consumption globally. Such limits affect all users and remote addresses independently from their own individual resource consumption.
