It is quite difficult to leak the forum password. Because the password is further password protected from within the utility. If you mean, "leaking" out the credentials that someone received so that someone
else joins -- well, that is not called "leaking".... As far as our system is concerned; that is how the forum grows, right. So it is not a problem to us.
If the member gives the forum credentials to someone outside, no harm is really done. That thief cannot impersonate the person from whom the credentials were taken. They have NO choice but to actually join the forum to see the contents.
Note that the member will have to ALSO share the his/her membership credentials of that forum to that outside person if that person has to really impersonate the person the credentials were "stolen" from (with the intent to impersonate). But the membership credentials of a user is actually tied up to the hardware of the computer of the user; so that outside hacker will have to physically steal the hardware too.In short practically nobody can impersonate any legal user. Hence there is practically no identity theft possible. Of course stealing your computer, or the decrypted files that are on your own computer -- well that kind of theft is not what we are talking of here. Those thefts cannot be handled by a software company!
Our server keeps the actual index of the forum pages; and that index is revealed ONLY to those who are actual members; and who come in using our special desktop application. Moreover, the index file itself is kept encrypted on the server. And we have a proprietary method that makes it extremely difficult for a member to share his/her membership credentials to an outsider
In short practically nothing can go wrong as far as hackers/thieves go. But take backups regularly of your data.
Note that once the data is on your computer; it is actually kept in a decrypted manner on your own computer. Just so that you can browse thru all the forum content even offline. If you lose your computer, you will surely lose your membership to the forum too.
