 Security Enhancements & Plugin Upgrades
Posted By: Jamie Heuyard On: 21 Jul 2010 2:57 PM
Details We have upgraded several of our most widely used plugins as well as added new login security to all sites on our system.

Greetings All,

In order to improve the overall security of all sites on our system we have recently implemented an enhancement to our login process. When you visit the login screen for your site you may notice the text "Login form protected by Login LockDown". This new enhancement will temporarily lockout any user account that enters an incorrect password too many times. This will prevent unauthorized users from attempting to guess your password through what is called a "brute force" attack. If you have forgotten your password you can always use the "Lost Your Password?" link from your login screen and you will receive an email to reset it.

In addition to the new security enhancements we have also upgraded many of the popular plugins you use to enhance your sites features and functionality. No action is required from you for either of these updates but please feel free to let us know any questions you may have.

Have a great day!

Jamie
