I presume you mean that you have QMAXSIGN set to 3, which is the currently
shipped default.  QMAXSGNACN is the system value that controls what to do
when QMAXSIGN is exceeded.  The shipped default of QMAXSGNACN is also 3,
which means to vary off the device and disable the user profile

There's no clean way to do this at the user profile level.  Many other
security characteristics can be changed on a user profile level.  You could
create a hoakie process to check is that user profile was disabled, and
re-enable it immediately.  But this would:

1.      Be hoakie, and error prone.
2.      Probably consume excess system overhead
