I think that the issue is that the AD and Remedy are not fully integrated.
The expected behavior would be to block all the domain for a user for 30
minutes after three wrong attempts. For instance, in a fully integrated
system If I made an attemp to log into a computer, then from another
computer I try to log to Sharepoint, and finally I try to connect to the
VPN the account is blocked for 30 minutes. Three attempts no matter from.

Under my point of view a bad password should be sent to the AD and the
block should come from the AD
