Phone reset after consecutive failed authentication

Hello,

My phone is protected using fingerprint scans and pin code. I noticed that after several failures the phone is not only telling me that it will lock, but also that it will reset (after 8 failures, or something like that).
I don't see that as a security feature, anyone willing to make me loose a lot of time only have to put his/her fingers 8 times on the button and ... everything is gone in my phone ?

Is this a local security feature ? I mean is it configurable somewhere ? or is coming from a remote policy, or hardcoded somewhere in the phone ?

Thanks.
