Descripción
This plugin seamlessly changes your stored password hash to a far stronger one. The hash that it is changed to is
generated with a variety of variations on PBKDF2, including my own ARC4PBKDF2 which adds custom ARC4 encryption
during the hashing processs, then a SHA-1 to meet size constraints. This plugin exponentially increases the strength
of your stored password.

Preguntas frecuentes
-
How will this affect my login time?
-
The difference to login time is negligable, but to someone trying to crack your password, it can add years to the cracking time.
-
How can I change my password hashes back?
-
As of version 0.2b, you are able to start converting all logins back to the original hash. In order to deactive this plugin without
locking yourself out of your WordPress, you need to have all your users login after reverting the hashing methods to the original.
