Download Passwords Evolved for WordPress V 1.3.4

Passwords Evolved is a WordPress plugin designed to enhance the site's security by enforcing uncompromised passwords and utilizing stronger hashing techniques. This plugin integrates with the Have I Been Pwned? API to prevent users from logging in with passwords that have previously appeared in data breaches, primarily focusing on accounts with administrator roles. Users can adjust the settings to enforce this policy on other roles as needed, ensuring a comprehensive security approach across the site.

In addition to password enforcement, Passwords Evolved employs robust hashing algorithms, including bcrypt and Argon2, to encrypt passwords. The plugin automatically upgrades existing password hashes to these stronger standards upon the next login. This ensures that even if a data breach occurs, the encrypted passwords remain secure. Overall, Passwords Evolved offers essential features for improving WordPress authentication and safeguarding user accounts.
