This document provides a comprehensive overview of the authentication system designed for integration with the Cracked.to platform. The system is implemented in multiple programming languages, including Python, C#, Rust, Go, and C++, catering to various application environments. It ensures that only users with a valid authentication key and belonging to specific user groups (Premium+ and above) can access the application.
The authentication system validates a user's authentication key and hardware ID (HWID) against the Cracked.io's authentication endpoint. It supports both initial authentication and subsequent verifications using a locally stored key. The system also distinguishes between regular users and those with upgraded memberships, allowing access only to those in the specified premium groups.
- Authentication Key: A unique key provided by the user, used for validating their access.
- Hardware ID (HWID): A unique identifier for the user's hardware, used to bind the authentication to a specific device.
- Local Key Storage: A file (
key.dat) used to store the authentication key locally for subsequent access checks.
Each language-specific folder (csharp/, python/, rust/, golang/, cpp/) contains detailed documentation and code examples reflecting the respective implementation specifics of the authentication process.
- Key Storage: The local storage of the authentication key (
key.dat) should be secured to prevent unauthorized access. - HWID Binding: The use of HWID as part of the authentication process helps in binding the authentication to a specific hardware, reducing the risk of key sharing.
This authentication system provides a secure method to ensure that only authorized and premium users can access the application. It leverages both local key storage and hardware-bound authentication to enhance security and user management.
