ℹ️ Check
Review the Samsung SDS EMM configuration settings and verify the server is configured to enforce the limit of three consecutive invalid logon attempts by admin. On the MDM console, verify that the MDM console "Maximum Failed Login Attempts" is set to "3". If the administrator incorrectly enters the login password three times, the account is locked. If the MDM console Maximum Failed Login Attempts is not set to "3", this is a finding.
