Re: LUKS wrong password timeout
I am not sure that there is native support for timeouts in LUKS, but what exactly is your threat model?

Thanks for the answer. No threats, only extra protection.

Re: LUKS wrong password timeout
Third party guides are not supported here. That said, what's stopping your attacker from forcibly rebooting the machine by either pressing a reset/power button or using ctrl-alt-del (didn't test if this last one work but probably it does).
