I believe SEP = Secure Enclave Processor - iOS has it throttle passcode input requests. Visibly this results messages like "iPad is Disabled. Try again in 5 minutes".

I'm not sure how GrayKey bypasses this...

Ah OK sure. Interesting that the rate limiting is done at the hardware layers and not the the OS.
