Facial Recognition Authentication

설명

For years, users worldwide have faced security risks due to insecure login pages. WordPress sites are no exception to these challenges. Our plugin provides an innovative solution for login security by integrating facial recognition technology with traditional username and password methods.

Currently, users log in using either a username and password or a Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) method. While 2FA enhances security, it has its own vulnerabilities:

1. Phishing attacks: Hackers can deceive users into entering their 2FA codes on fake websites.
2. Lost or stolen devices: If the device used to receive 2FA codes (e.g., a mobile phone) is lost or stolen, unauthorized access becomes possible.
3. SMS-based 2FA: SMS codes can be intercepted through SIM swapping attacks.
4. Access issues: Users may face challenges accessing 2FA codes due to technical issues.
5. Software flaws: Authentication apps can have security vulnerabilities.

Our plugin addresses these issues by leveraging facial recognition for authentication. When a user attempts to log in, our plugin communicates with a secure Django server for authentication, ensuring no sensitive user data is stored in WordPress databases. The facial recognition system can distinguish between a live user and a static photo, making unauthorized access virtually impossible.

Key Features:

• Facial recognition authentication using a simple webcam.
• No storage of user credentials in WordPress databases.
• Interaction between the plugin and server is conducted through secure APIs with encrypted data transmission.
• Enhanced security with PBKDF2 password hashing (870,000 iterations with salt) on the Django server.
• Seamless integration with WordPress login pages, adding an extra layer of security.
• Simplified registration process for users to set up facial recognition and credentials.
• New Manage Account section for users to change their password, update photo, or delete their account, secured with OTP and facial recognition.
• Activation email sent during registration, with a 24-hour expiration period.
• Each user can only register with a single email address.
