Our expert team of developers keeps jSecure Authentication extension up to date with the latest vulnerabilities and security threats to keep your website safe all the time.


Secure Your Website Today!!!

The problem with Joomla admin login is that any web user can easily know the site is created in Joomla! by typing the URL to access the administration area (i.e. www.site name.com/administration). This makes hackers hack the site easily once they crack id and password for Joomla!. Information: jSecure Authentication module prevents access to administration (back end) login page without an appropriate access key.

Easy to install, jSecure adds a higher level of security to your Joomla website.

Features

1) Google Re-Captcha Security - jSecure Google recaptcha feature provides secure authentication to Joomla administrator system. jSecure Google reCAPTCHA feature protects your Joomla administrator access from spam attacks. It does this while letting your valid users pass through with ease.

2) Secure Image Authentication - Secure Image Authentication function adds a second layer security of user authentication to your joomla administrator system. Secure image authentication matches the MD5 hash value of uploaded image with the stored image .

3) Spam IP Protection - This is a very useful online security feature. Spam IP Protection feature blocks the access of spammers to your joomla administrator system. Spam IP protection uses spam protection API to identify the spam IP and block them thereby protecting your website.

4) Country Block - Using Country Block feature website owners can block countries from where their website's joomla administrator section is attacked most.

5) Change Database Prefix - Changing the database table prefix is an easy way for an attacker to destroy your website. Our change DB prefix functionality prevents hackers from damaging the database by changing its prefix.

6) WHOIS Lookup Tool - Using WHOIS Lookup tool website administrator can find out the domain’s name servers (DNS) information used for service

7) Email Scan - This feature allows website owners to blacklist spam email address in joomla administrator. During user registration on frontend, these email ids are matched with the one saved in database. If it matches user is blocked from registering on frontend.

8) Multiple User keys - Using this feature a user can set multiple secret keys to different groups. Multiple secret keys can be set to different groups whom you wish to grant access to your joomla! backend without sharing your master passkey. Multiple User Keys feature is an important user authentication feature.

9) Form Based Authentication - Form-based authentication is the first layer of user authentication security which allows a user to enter a secret key in a form instead of a url.

10) Auto Ban IP Address - Auto Ban IP feature is used to block a specific IP address. This is an important website security protection feature that helps your website from spammers attack.

11) Component Security - Restrict access to other components installed on your site by setting passwords for them.

12) Access Graph feature - Detailed graph to show successful & unsuccessful login attempts on your site administration.

13) Master Password Protection - You can block access of jSecure component to other users. Setting to "Yes", allows you to create a password that will be required when any administrator tries to access the jSecure configuration settings in the Joomla administration area.

14) Master Login Control - Login control feature restrict multiple users from logging into the site using the same username and password.

15) Admin Password Protection - Added password protection to add extra security layer over the administrator folder using htaccess and htpassword.

16) Black Listed and White Listed IPs - Bans an IP automatically after some specific attempts for a particular time period from accessing the admin area.

Great

I use it on all of my websites. It gives that added layer of security. It's very simple and yet very effective. I've used it for years and found it to work well.

Simple and effective

Really love this add on for joomla. So simple, works straight out of the box (J1.6). Should be incorporated into the core functionality.

It's so good!

This component is still quite not bad to use. I am quite pleased with them. Not trying to get support and everything is clear and simple.
I install this on all my Joomla! sites, and I honestly believe that it should be included in the basic install. The only thing to remember is to keep a copy of your Key when you are first installing it, so you don't have problems.
Having been hacked to the hilt whereby a hacker managed to delete my entire site somehow, I figured it was perhaps about time to start taking security a tad more seriously, so hunted for suitable Coms to help with the process. This & one other (RSFirewall) have proven to be the perfect combo. Like others I managed to lock myself out of the site first time around too, and wish I'd had the wit to return here to read how to overcome that easier than doing as I did and deleting the Com entirely off the database! But once I got the knack I've found it hugely useful - at least now I get forewarning of the multiple attacks to gain entrance via the Admin and the sneaky ways that are being used to try to do it. More importantly I can see whether they're succeeding before they get that far i.e. if they get as far as the login page to start with - so far, none have!!



However, I do have a couple of minor issues - while there is now the ability to black/whitelist IP addies, there's no easy way to see which are which once you put them in - all that happens is you get a list and as such I've not put my own IP in just in case it gets black instead of whitelisted without me realising. Would be much better if each list was fully shown as what it is.



And that's the only reason I've not given it a 5 star rating as otherwise it really is great but maybe some more work on it would have it truly superb!
This is a good product. It is well worth the money spent, but support is lacking. There seems to be a bug with jSecure and JoomlaWatch. (Most recent versions of both with Joomla version 1.5.22) With jSecure enabled you will not be able to access JoomlaWatch in the backend to view stats, etc.



You have to disable jSecure, then logout, then log back in via the default back end url. I've tried disabling and re-enabling the modules in different order and still the same result.



It's been over 5 days after posting the issue on the jSecure forums/support without even a reply saying that they will look into it. I don't expect a solution right away, but they could at least reply saying that they will look into it.



This product definitely would receive five stars if not for lack of support. Again, for the price I don't expect much, but at least a reply that they will look into it.

Great Product!

It's such a simple concept, but keeping people away from the back end login of my Joomla installs adds that extra peace of mind! I've been using this extension for years now, and though I was surprised to see the newest version for Joomla 1.6 needed to be purchased, I was happy to buy it! Thanks to the developer for a simple yet great little security tool!

Excellent componant

I have used this for a while now, starting with the free version and have just upgraded to the commercial one. I don't expected people to work for nothing.! It has been a reliable security feature for my joomla sites and easy to configure. As for the remark made by Jacob about being unable to log in to your site if you forget the code, The answer is simple, log in to your database and read the code from there.

Good component

It works fine and is much more better than the previous free version (plugin).

It is very important to receive e-mail notification in case of wrong attemp.

just nice ...

works right out of the box. If you forget your url setup to access admin area, just look in your database for the jsecure plugin and deactivate (publish=0). So you can access the admin area with the protection link.



Just a great tool to make joomla much safer.
