Authentication & Security

Passwordless Login (Passkeys)

Log in using WebAuthn passkeys - fingerprint, face recognition, or hardware security keys - instead of passwords. Eliminates phishing risks and forgotten passwords whilst providing a faster, more secure authentication experience. Ideal for clients who prefer modern, frictionless access to their accounts.

Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

Add an extra layer of security with email-based two-factor authentication. Enforce 2FA globally for all users or allow clients to opt in individually. Protects accounts from unauthorised access even if passwords are compromised. Configurable per-user or system-wide.

Admin Area IP-Only Access

Restrict access to your admin panel to a whitelist of trusted IP addresses. Only staff connecting from approved locations (e.g. office, VPN) can access the admin area. Adds a strong perimeter defence against remote attacks and unauthorised admin logins.

User Password Resets via Admin

Support staff can securely reset client passwords directly from the admin area when clients are locked out. Includes verification steps to ensure only authorised staff perform resets. Streamlines support workflows without compromising security.

Password Security

All passwords are hashed using bcrypt with industry-standard cost factors. Enforce minimum length, complexity, and character requirements. Passwords are never stored in plain text, ensuring client credentials remain protected even in the event of a database breach.

SQL Injection Prevention

Every database query uses prepared statements and parameterised inputs. User-supplied data is never concatenated into SQL, eliminating the most common web application vulnerability. Your database remains protected against malicious injection attacks.

CSRF Protection

All forms are protected with token-based Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) validation. Each submission must include a valid, session-bound token, preventing attackers from tricking users into performing unwanted actions. Essential for secure financial and account operations.

Session Management

Secure session handling with configurable timeouts, regeneration on privilege changes, and role-based access control. Sessions are properly invalidated on logout and can be configured to expire after periods of inactivity. Prevents session fixation and hijacking.

Support PIN System

Clients receive an automatically generated 6-digit PIN for identity verification when contacting support. Staff can validate callers quickly and securely without asking for sensitive account details. Reduces social engineering risks and speeds up support authentication.

CAPTCHA Protection

Integrate Google reCAPTCHA, hCaptcha, or Cloudflare Turnstile to block automated bots on registration, login, and contact forms. Choose the provider that best fits your privacy and compliance needs. Effectively prevents credential stuffing and spam account creation.

IP Banning

Block specific IP addresses from accessing registration and login pages. Useful for banning abusive users, known attackers, or regions you do not serve. Bans can be applied temporarily or permanently. Complements your firewall and security policies.

Email Domain Restrictions

Block registration from specific email domains (e.g. disposable or free email providers) to reduce fraud and low-quality sign-ups. Whitelist or blacklist domains as needed. Helps maintain a higher-quality client base and reduces support overhead.

Account Closure System

Clients can request account closure with email verification. Configurable reactivation windows allow clients to change their mind before data is permanently removed. Compliant with data retention and right-to-erasure requirements.

Fraud Detection

Integrate MaxMind MinFraud and FraudLabs Pro for real-time fraud screening. GeoIP blocking, proxy detection, device fingerprinting, and transaction risk scoring. Reduces chargebacks and fraudulent sign-ups. See the integrations page for details.
