Deny app access

[Shawn_Pereira]

Hi

Just wanted to know about the following 2 points: With streamlit, is there a way to deny access to an app (Locally / cloud) if:

1. a wrong password is entered a number of times?
2. the request is coming from a certain ip address?

Thanks in advance,

Hi @Shawn_Pereira

A while back IP allowlisting was retired from Community Cloud (please see Link to IP Allowlist Documentation is Broken - #6 by Nathan_Jones) and a related reply from @Charly_Wargnier suggested to look into firewall rules in a custom deployment on a third-party cloud platform:

Does Streamlit have a whitelist feature?

I’d like to configure my Streamlit server so that only specific IP addresses can access it for security reasons. I’ve looked through the documentation but couldn’t find anything relevant. Could you please share some information?

Hope this helps!

Thanks @dataprofessor , for the quick response. I was looking more for a solution to do this programmatically, much like a banking app that prevents a certain user (ip address) access for 24 hours if they have crossed 3 wrong password attempts.

Cheers
