Throttling brute force login attacks in Django

brute-force, django, python, security

Solution

There are many libraries available for it like Django-axes, Django-defender, Django-ratelimit, these libraries mentioned all do the same thing (with a few differences between them). You can choose the one which best suits your needs.

If you are using DRF, then you don't need an additional library (axes, ratelimit, etc.) because DRF already has the throttling functionality build in.

Problem

Are there generally accepted tactics for protecting Django applications against this kind of attack?
