+## **TL;DR<br>**
+Smart lockout is a capability of Entra ID that makes a given user account appear locked out for certain entities, while allowing legitimate users to successfully authenticate.<br>
+By slowing down an attacker, it raises the cost of successful brute force attack on primary authentication factor (it's unfortunately still a password in majority of the cases).
