Extends the WordPress Two Factor plugin with advanced role-based controls and enhanced administrative features.

== Description ==

Two Factor Extended is a comprehensive extension for the WordPress Two Factor plugin that provides administrators with enterprise-level controls over two-factor authentication across their site.

**Core Features:**

* **Role-Based 2FA Requirements** - Require specific 2FA methods for each user role (administrators need Email + TOTP, editors need Email only, etc.)
* **Provider Visibility Control** - Show or hide specific 2FA methods based on user role to simplify options for non-technical users
* **Grace Period Enforcement** - Give users a configurable number of days (0-365) to configure required 2FA methods before enforcement
* **WordPress Multisite Support** - Network-wide enforcement with super admin requirements and site-level override controls
* **Compliance Reporting** - Real-time compliance dashboards showing which users meet 2FA requirements
* **Audit Logging** - Comprehensive logging of all 2FA configuration changes and enforcement actions
* **Bulk Operations** - Bulk require 2FA or reset grace periods for multiple users at once
* **Import/Export Settings** - Backup and restore your 2FA configuration with JSON export/import

**Advanced Features:**

* **WP-CLI Commands** - Manage 2FA requirements via command line (status, enforce, report, reset)
* **REST API** - Programmatic access to compliance data and enforcement actions
* **Security Hardening** - Built following WordPress and OWASP security best practices (Security Grade A)
* **Accessibility** - WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliant for inclusive administration
* **Performance Optimized** - Efficient database queries and caching for large user bases

**Requirements:**

This plugin requires the [Two Factor](https://wordpress.org/plugins/two-factor/) plugin (version 0.15.0 tested) to be installed and activated.

== Installation ==

Yes! Two Factor Extended fully supports WordPress Multisite with network-wide settings and site-level overrides.

* **CSRF Protection**: All forms use WordPress nonces to prevent cross-site request forgery
* **Input Validation**: All user inputs are validated and sanitized before processing
* **Output Escaping**: All outputs are properly escaped to prevent XSS attacks
* **SQL Injection Protection**: Uses WordPress database APIs exclusively (no direct SQL queries)
* **Audit Logging**: All configuration changes and enforcement actions are logged
* **REST API Security**: All API endpoints require authentication and authorization
* **File Upload Validation**: Import files are validated for type, size, and content

= Security Best Practices =

1. **Keep WordPress Updated**: Always use the latest WordPress version
2. **Use Strong Passwords**: Enforce strong passwords for all user accounts
3. **Enable 2FA for All Admins**: Require 2FA for administrator and editor roles
4. **Regular Backups**: Export your 2FA settings regularly
5. **Monitor Audit Logs**: Review the audit log for suspicious activity
6. **Review Compliance Reports**: Check compliance reports regularly

= Reporting Security Issues =

If you discover a security vulnerability, please email the plugin authors directly. Do not create public GitHub issues for security vulnerabilities.

We take security seriously and will respond promptly to all security reports.
