Designed from the ground up for maximum security, beautiful UI/UX, and GDPR compliance, it requires zero database setup (100% flat-file logic) and handles user creation flawlessly through the native DirectAdmin API.

✨ Enterprise-Grade Features

🛡️ Unrivaled Security & Privacy

• k-Anonymity Password Checks: Integrates the Have I Been Pwned API directly in the client’s browser using the Web Crypto API. Only the first 5 characters of a SHA-1 hash are transmitted—your plaintext password never leaves your browser.
• Advanced Rate-Limiting (Token Bucket): Fully protects the DirectAdmin API against brute-force and DDoS spam attacks using a highly efficient, session-independent Token Bucket algorithm based on cryptographically hashed IPs.
• No Database Required: Works strictly with local flat files (JSON/PHP). All sensitive log files (audit.log.php, used_codes.php) are completely locked down and unreadable from the web, regardless of whether your webserver is Apache, LiteSpeed, or NGINX.
• Strict Content Security Policy (CSP): Ships with hardened HTTP response headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options) out of the box, mitigating XSS and iframe-injection attacks.

🌐 Internationalization & UX

• 20+ Supported Languages: Comes fully translated into 20 languages (English, German, French, Spanish, Russian, Chinese, Thai, and more).
• Responsive Dark/Light Mode: Automatically adjusts its premium UI to the system preferences of your users.
• Live Password Checklist: A real-time, side-by-side interactive UI element that instantly visually validates password complexity requirements.
• Fail-open DNS MX Checks: Automatically verifies the existence of mail servers (MX records) for the email domains entered during registration to prevent bot signups, featuring built-in caching.

🤖 Ultimate Anti-Bot Protection

Forget spam. We support natively integrated setups for:

• hCaptcha
• reCAPTCHA (Google)
• Cloudflare Turnstile
• Altcha (Proof-of-Work, 100% GDPR compliant)
• MTCaptcha

🎟️ Exclusive Access Modes

• Invite-Only Mode: Optionally lock your registration portal so only users with pre-generated, single-use, or multi-use invitation codes can join your platform.
