Adding a delay to HandleURL

$

Hi all,

Building a REST API. I’d like to add a 1 second delay in HandleURL before sending a response when the user tries login credentials. This is in order to mitigate brute-force password attacks.

But every way that I know to add such a delay, for example a loop until the system time has elapsed 1s, or SleepMBS(1), locks the entire web app up for that duration, even for other users.

What’s the proper way to approach this?
