I'm curious about what occurs following three attempts on the Ledger. Does the device lock itself temporarily as a security measure? Or is there some sort of reset process that needs to be undergone? Additionally, are there any consequences for exceeding the maximum number of attempts, such as permanent data loss or the need to contact customer support? I'm trying to understand the safety mechanisms built into the Ledger and how they protect users from unauthorized access.
