{% hint style="info" %}
Brute-force protection ensures security against a single IP address attempting to attack a single user account. If a specific IP address fails multiple login attempts for the same user, brute-force protection takes the following actions:

* Blocks the suspicious IP address from logging in as that user.
* Sends an email notification to the affected user.
  {% endhint %}

Session lifetime limits determine how long the system should retain a login session. For security reasons, users are logged out automatically after certain intervals:

* **Inactivity timeout**: Period after a user's session expires - given they do not interact with the console. This occurs after **3 minutes** **of inactivity**.
* **Require login after**: Period after a user's session expires - independent of their interaction with the console. This is set to **30 days after login**.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.impossiblecloud.com/partner-portal-help/management-console-guide/getting-started/accessing-the-management-console.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
