What is DES Password Pro?
DES Password Pro is a script that creates multiple user javascript login forms. Different users can be set different passwords and entry urls, and all data is encrypted through the secure DES encryption algorithm.
How Secure is DES Password Pro?
DES Password Pro uses the DES encryption method to encrypt the username and password against the url the user will be sent to. DES is a recinded military standard encryption method, and is the strongest encryption you're likely to encounter in Javascript.
However, it should be noted that the longer the username and password, the more secure the encryption.
Also, DES has now been superseded by AES, and shouldn't be considered unbreakable. Using specialist hardware a team were able to crack a DES password in two days in 2004.
Another thing to note is that even if the DES encryption is non trivial, its is the implementation and the manner in which it is combined with other algorithms that is important. In particular, the fact that all addresses (the messege to be encrypted) start with the same http://domain.com plaintext makes the system weaker.
To maximise security, choose a long phrase as the password, and a long random alphanumeric sequence as the location of the members area.

How does DES Password Pro work?
DES Password Pro first encrypts the usernames and passwords against their respective urls, it then outputs the code for you're login script which contains the encrypted data. The user then logs in by entering their username and password, and are directed to their personal page.
