It returns a value, = nothing more, that will show how close from a proven legitimate user a = visitor is typing the password. You still have to build your own = security program.=20 Security is at the heart of many preoccupations nowadays, and the = password as a single powerful key is fine until someone copies it, steal = it or find it. With BioType for WebDNA, you can make your system as = simple to use as usual with a single password, but with an additional = security layer to protect your users against password loss, steal, or = brute-force cracking. Finally, it is a good habit not to store the passwords in a database, = but a password hash with 20, 50, or even 500 reiterations using the = strongest hash method built-in WebDNA.
