Proxypass or Pennywize?
 

Anyone using either of the two? And which would you guys recommend for password management?

Rick

We used Pennywize a long, long, long time ago. It did it's job, but I wouldn't recomend it today.

One word: StrongBox |thumb

No. :) As SCORE-Cash indicated, Pennywize was outdated as of August 1999,
when the whitepaper came out explaining how crackers take advantage of
Pennywize to make it easier to break into a site. You are better off with
no "protection" at all.

Care to mention which system you DO use on your dozens of sites? ;)

StrongBox, that is what we use.

Another Solution
 

I would agree that both those systems are outdated.
In fact, many of our clients are ex-users of Pennywize
and ProxyPass.

I represent a password protection system called
Phantom Frog that is setting a new standard for
password security. Our product uses Geo-IP tracking
technology which will not even allow 2 people to
share the same password let alone a whole trading
forum with hundreds of leechers!

Our Hi-Resolution Geo-IP Tracking offers the most
accurate password abuse detection available anywhere.
It tracks all visits to the members area of a site
down to the city level. Furthermore, it takes
latitudal and longitudal data into consideration.
Therefore, Frog detects the fact that the same
password was used in L.A. and NYC. We pinpoint the
abuse instantly, allowing for the possibility of
legitimate travel. That level of resolution is
unique to Phantom Frog.

Our system is based upon the premise of providing
24/7 uninterrupted access to the legitimate members
while blocking out the leechers. This is accomplished
automatically through our Automated Member Support
(AMS) feature. When password abuse is detected, the
password is changed. The next time the valid member
trys to login, Frog uses their email address to
validate their identity and issues them a new password
directly via email. This strategy breaks the cycle of
password abuse and frees up the webmasters to do more
important work.

Our product is integrated with CCBill, NetBilling,
Paycom, NATS, MPA3, Verotel, 2000Charge, SegPay, Jettis,
and 365Billing. Phantom Frog has a simple FREE Trial
Version which installs by adding one html tag or we
can handle the installation completely for you for.
In fact, we recommend that you leave ProxyPass or
Pennywize activated during our Trial to witness
first-hand all the abuse being missed by them!

Most of customers were motivated to purchase our
password protection only 3 days after installing the
Free Trial! We also offer Automated Member Support,
Brute Force Attack Protection, and Bandwidth Abuse
Protection.

Phantom Frog has stellar webmaster testimonials which
are listed on our site. A high percentage of our clients
are ex-ProxyPass/Pennywize clients. A casual scan of
our webmaster testimonials page will reveal how unaware
they were of the password abuse which was being allowed
and overlooked by their current protection system.
