Hi,

Just wanted to hear some of your thoughts regarding the best modern day methods of securing a member's area.

It seems most of the larger programs are just using Basic Authentication. I assume there are 3rd party or internal security scripts running in the background, but I've often heard it's easier for hackers to get what they want through the standard Auth login form.

Any thoughts?
