Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.Experimental project
This is a sandbox project, which contains experimental code for developer use only.
User knock emulates "port knocking" by disabling the superuser (uid 1) account when they log out. In order to log into the account, a "secret knock" must first happen. This knock is provided in Configuration -> User knock as a URL with a generated key. Once that URL has been visited, the superuser account is activated and login proceeds as normal.
This reduces the chances of the superuser's password being bruteforced, as the account is disabled until the knock.
