Passwordless Authentication and Passwordless Security
It’s no secret — passwords can be a real headache, both for the people who use them and the people who manage them. Over time, we’ve created hundreds of passwords, it’s easy to lose track of them and they’re easily compromised. Fortunately, passwordless authentication is becoming a feasible reality for many businesses. Duo can help you get there.

[EDIT 4] There is a phpdesktop that is currently being developed by cztomczak on github Here's the link. github.com cztomczak phpdesktop [/EDIT 4] [EDIT 3] It is very sad that the developer did not just neglect to provide detailed information on how to properly use HTML5 PHP Desktop, but out rightly refused to do so; as without that information, the user is not likely to get the program to work properly. [/EDIT 3] [EDIT 2] - Some tidbits you need to know in order to use HTML5_PHP_DESKTOP_1.0 When the program is run, two windows will open up. 1) A window displaying the PHP desktop App, 2) A Command Prompt running the PHP web server. 3) In order to run your modified php app, both windows must be closed in order to run the edited version of the PHP app. 4) When replacing the default php app withing the package, you must insure that the following files are withing the package directory otherwise your php application will not run. index.html * c2runtime.js * package.json * jquery-2.0.0.min.js * [/EDIT 2] [Edit] I was able to edit the index.php file. It appears that the problem is that the PHP webserver portion of the program does not exit when you close the program for editing, and therefore retains the previous version of the file. The program needs some work and is especially in need of a user manual. The developer created this application to market his skills. Unfortunately, the lack of a user manual to instruct users how to properly utilize the program discredits his skills. [/EDIT] The program does not work. All it does is show the PHP info page. Attempting to edit the program using the make package_nw editable.exe and the prepare package_nw for use.exe achieved nothing as I editied the index.php file commenting out the phpinfo line and inserting placing an include (index.html); line. After editing and running the prepare package_nw for use.exe, when running application.exe, the phpinfo page came back up indicating that the changes did not take place. To bad. This seemed to be a good idea.
