Re: Nice idea but there is a flaw.

For companies facing hundreds of thousands of attempts a day on a multitude of IP addresses, it makes more since to have it build and deny based on an interval. For instance, at the company I work for, the new IPs for banning are grabbed, sorted, and uniq'd around every hour. Then based on the number of attemps and a few other delimiting characteristics, they're disallowed for a possible one up to [x]num of days.
