Thanks guys for the feedback and suggestions. I'll have to research more the different options. I have working SaaS application and won't be able to easily integrate Community Auth. I'll look at leveraging some of its code. In the end, it will be a home grown solution.

Another thought that came to mind is showing a captcha after a certain number of failed attempts. The captcha would be based on ip. With captcha, I wouldn't need to lock accounts or anything of the sort.

Are there any good resources you could share regarding a captcha solution?

I'm thinking of blocking an IP and and displaying a captcha... say if there are more than 10 failed login requests / per IP.

Your thoughts?
