Intercede announces Secure Login for WordPress
RapID Secure Login enables WordPress users to easily access
their accounts without insecure and cumbersome passwords
Lutterworth, England/Reston, VA, 8(th) May 2017 - Today, digital
identity and credentials expert, Intercede announced the launch of
RapID Secure Login (RapID-SL), a Plugin for WordPress that enables
administrators and subscribers to log into websites and blogs with
fingerprints instead of usernames and passwords. By eliminating the
use of insecure passwords, users are provided with superior
usability and more robust security.
RapID Secure Login is a WordPress Plugin that works with an
Android or iOS app. Available through the WordPress Plugin
Directory, it harnesses Intercede's RapID credentialing service to
provide high security authentication using 2048-bit cryptographic
keys without having to write a line of code.
To login from any desktop browser, users scan a QR-code with
RapID-SL on a smartphone. The app then delivers a cryptographic
signature which logs the user in without having to enter any
details into the browser. As a result, there are no risk of details
being intercepted or cached. Users also don't need to remember
complex passwords that can be hacked. To login with RapID-SL from a
phone or tablet, users simply tap the QR code on screen and
subsequently provide a fingerprint or PIN.
The integrated plugin can be installed onto WordPress without
any coding or technical knowledge. As a replacement for the popular
but end-of-life 'Clef' 2FA plugin, RapID-SL offers high levels of
security and convenience without being dependent on 3(rd) party
authentication services. With fewer 'moving parts' RapID-SL is
built with performance and reliability in mind. As a first in the
industry, WordPress users are provided with 'frictionless'
fingerprint or PIN login from a single mobile app, enabling access
to multiple accounts on multiple websites with no passwords in
sight.
Intercede's CEO, Richard Parris commented: "Based on Intercede's
proven experience working with some of the most security conscious
organisations in the world, this new Plugin provides users with a
secure, easy to implement and simple to use authentication service
for any WordPress site.
"The solution is security magic for small businesses and
consumers who have previously felt digitally disenfranchised from
enjoying strong levels of security and privacy. Faced with the
harsh reality of today's digital economy, usernames and passwords
are no longer fit for purpose as they become an easy target for
hackers. RapID-SL provides an alternative that is both more secure
and user-friendly. We expect more businesses and consumers to
demand this level of security in future to protect their sensitive
information from prying eyes."
