TYPO3 extension `rsaauth`
=========================

[](#typo3-extension-rsaauth)

Contains a service to authenticate TYPO3 BE and FE users using private/public key encryption of passwords.

This is a fallback if the instance is not accessible via HTTPS. However, this extension has many drawbacks and is not a suitable solution over properly encrypted client/server communication. All sites nowadays should be only accessible via HTTPS and rsaauth is not needed.
