Brightery

<p>Brightery Secure 2FA adds a strong second login step for WordPress accounts while staying lightweight in runtime.</p>
<p>Features:</p>
<ul>
<li>Authenticator app (TOTP) support.</li>
<li>Passkeys / WebAuthn support for Touch ID, Face ID, Windows Hello, fingerprint readers, and device PIN.</li>
<li>Role-based enforcement: require selected user groups to enroll.</li>
<li>Forced enrollment page to block protected users until they configure security.</li>
<li>Backup codes.</li>
<li>Encrypted TOTP secret storage using WordPress salts.</li>
<li>Login throttling for repeated primary-login and second-factor failures.</li>
<li>Lightweight audit logs stored inside WordPress options.</li>
<li>Email alerts for enrollment changes and lockouts.</li>
<li>Trusted devices so users can skip 2FA on approved browsers for a limited period.</li>
<li>CSV export for security logs.</li>
<li>Advanced log filters and search.</li>
<li>Custom labels for trusted devices and passkeys.</li>
<li>Optional revocation of other sessions after security changes.</li>
<li>Optional blocking of WordPress application passwords for protected / 2FA-enabled users.</li>
<li>Lightweight runtime: the plugin mostly runs on login, profile, AJAX, settings pages, WooCommerce account pages, and authenticated REST requests.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Important Notes</h3>
<ul>
<li>HTTPS is required for passkeys in production.</li>
<li>This build is optimized for normal interactive WordPress logins and admin access enforcement.</li>
<li>Passkey attestation trust-chain validation is intentionally not enforced in order to remain lightweight and dependency-free.<br />
The plugin still validates challenge, origin, RP ID hash, user presence, optional user verification, signature, and signature counter.</li>
<li>This lightweight build supports ES256 passkeys.</li>
<li>TOTP setup includes a local QR-code renderer so the setup secret stays on your own WordPress site during enrollment.</li>
<li>The plugin stores account-security data such as trusted-device records, passkey metadata, security logs, and a limited recent login-context history.</li>
<li>A privacy-policy suggestion plus WordPress personal-data exporter and eraser integrations are included.</li>
<li>There are no non-GPL third-party runtime libraries bundled with this plugin;<br />
the distributed JavaScript and CSS files are included as human-readable source.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Security Model</h3>
<ul>
<li>TOTP secrets are encrypted before storing in user meta.</li>
<li>Backup codes are stored hashed.</li>
<li>Passkeys verify origin, RP ID hash, challenge, signature, and signature counter.</li>
<li>Rate limiting helps slow repeated login and 2FA guessing attempts.</li>
<li>The plugin can require passkey user verification for biometric/PIN-backed sign-in.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Privacy</h3>
<p>Brightery Secure 2FA stores security-related account data so it can protect logins and help administrators investigate suspicious access.<br />
The plugin adds suggested privacy-policy text to WordPress and registers personal-data exporter/eraser callbacks for the data it stores.</p>
<h3>Source Code and Licensing</h3>
<ul>
<li>All distributed plugin PHP, JS, and CSS files are included as human-readable source.</li>
<li>The local QR renderer is bundled directly in <code>assets/js/bs2fa-qr.js</code> as readable source code.</li>
<li>No non-GPL runtime libraries are required for normal plugin operation.</li>
</ul>

<p>WordPress is the world’s most popular content management system (CMS), with over 40% of all websites running on it. As such, it has become a prime target for hackers looking to exploit vulnerabilities to gain unauthorized access to websites. One of the best ways to enhance the security of a WordPress site is to enable two-factor authentication (2FA) for administrators.</p>
<ul>
<li>Simply enable the plugin then edit a user account to enable 2FA for that individual user.</li>
<li>Please make sure your WordPress website sends and receives emails correctly. The best way is to use a SMTP plugin.</li>
