Secure Forgot Password System Using Ajax, Jquery and PHP

This tutorial teaches you how to build a secure forgot password system or a complete login system with the forgot password feature without refreshing your website page using Ajax, Jquery and PHP.

This system is secure in the sense that, the users of your website have been given the privilege to set their private security questions and answers during their account creation process that they will later use, should they forget or lost their account passwords.

If a user of your website happens to lost or forget his account password, that user does not need to request for a new random generated password sent via his or her email box which is not secure because an attacker can intercept such messages and therefore gain access to the account of your user(s).

What this system does is to allow your users to set their private or secret questions and answers during their account creation so that, if a user forgets his or her password, all the user will do is to come to the login page of your website and click on the forgot password button, the system will then prompt the user to enter his or her account username.

After the user has provided his or her account username and clicks on the submit button, the system will now validate the submitted username to be sure that its valid and gets the secret question associated with the submitted username from the database for the user to answer it.

If the user answers the secret question correctly, access to change the password that is associated with the submitted username account will be given to this user otherwise this user will be denied access.

Users are given 6 chances to enter correct answer for their security questions during their reset password process after which the system will lock a user out for 30 minutes, should the user submit wrong security answer up to six times.

The system supports all browsers and the scripts are written in a way that any one can easily understand and customize with good programming code comments to ease usability.

Secured Users Access Level System using PHP and Mysql

This tutorial teaches you how to build a secure user access level system using PHP and Mysql.

There are two user access levels created for this system at the moment but you can add as many user levels as you wish depending on your needs.

The two user access levels created for this system at the moment are as follows:

(1) Level Zero: This is the default level meant for all ordinary and newly registered users in the system. When a user newly registers, the access level for that user is set to zero in the database users table.
(2) Level One: This is the default level meant for the Administrator of the system. You have to set the access level for any user that you wish to make an administrator for the system to one in the database users table before that user can have the administrative access or privilege to see all the information in the system.

When a user tries to log into the system, the system validates his or her information, checks the database users table for his or her details including his or her access level and displays the appropriate content to the user.

An ordinary user or a user at a lower level in the system does not and can not see what the administrator who is at an upper level in the system sees.

The levels of the users in the system are determined based on the information inserted into the database table for each user.

This is a very simple to understand application that gives you the basics of how to implement this kind of systems with good programming code comments to ease usability.
