Abstract
The present disclosure relates to computer-implemented methods, software, and systems for mitigating risk of denial of services for protected resources, including: receiving a request to change an old log-in credential of an account for authenticating to access a resource to a new log-in credential, wherein the request is received from an entity authenticated at an automation tool that is configured to execute resource management operations over resources; determining, at the automation tool, whether to validate the new log-in credential by determining whether a tracked number of attempts to access the resource by the account has reached a threshold lock policy value for the resource; and in response to invalidating the new log-in credential by determining that the tracked number of attempts to access the resource exceeds the threshold lock policy value, denying, by the automation tool, changing the old log-in credential to the new log-in credential.
