Galaxy S24Hi,
For a security audit we have to show that the S24 is capable of not allowing multiple PIN guesses in a short time period. A 'brute force attack'. Google Android documentation says it allows 5 attempts and then an escalation time delay pattern is used, but that the timing is up to each vendor. I've been through the user manual, service manual, and the other PDF's on the S24 page and none of them deal with it.
Apple have an answer at their web page here https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/security/sec20230a10d/web for their pattern. Does Samsung have anything like that for Android 14 on their phones please?
I have googled and asked Gemini AI and all I have been able to get is that it used to be just a 30 second lockout in Android 5 and it changed in later versions of Android to an escalating pattern especially when they mandated a 6 digit pin.

Galaxy S24Anyone actually have the answer for the question I raised rather than a diversion on the topic?
