Most secured user authentication - El Forum - 07-19-2008 [eluser]Boyz26[/eluser] Hi all, I am trying to decide on which *auth is the most secured user authentication I can get out of the box. Can anyone point me around? I've tried ezauth and auth. The codeigniter blog recommends auth. Are they using it for this forum too? And how secured/unsecured can these be? Thank you so much!!
