A lot of web sites, even well known ones (newspapers, telcos, ...) adopts WordPress as their CMS. WordPress is a great platform, however it can happen that password leaking or guessing might lead to unauthorized access to the platform. A potential attacker can be therefore able to change articles, part of the web site and/or make the website unavailable, with image and economic damages for a company or for a blogger. This is even more true if your website is not SSL protected.

SecurePass is a SaaS service offering an easy and affordable solution for One Time Passwords (OTP) and strong authentication in general. They offer 5 users for free included with their standard (=basic) account, which is more than enough for standard blogs and web sites. Companies can purchase additional users, if needed.
