    The maintenance for reForge Captcha has been successfully completed.

    We have decided to postpone the updates for reForge Consent to the upcoming major maintenance window. This allows us to first improve the system and resolve any existing bugs before making significant changes to the database structure.

    We’re almost finished with the maintenance for reForge Captcha and will move on to reForge Consent shortly after.

    In a few weeks, we will schedule one more major maintenance window focused on maximizing security across our platform. During this larger update, we will enhance protection for sensitive data and account security. We will also include NexSub in this maintenance, adding encryption for secrets, passkey support, and 2FA functionality.

    Please note that passkeys and 2FA are already available for reForge Captcha and reForge Consent, so these changes will apply only to NexSub.

    The maintenance is proceeding smoothly. We have successfully encrypted all site secret keys and are now moving on to encrypt API keys, 2FA secrets, and IP addresses. Thanks to the encrypt and decrypt helper functions we built, adding this protection is straightforward, and because reForge Consent is a fork of reForge Captcha we can reuse the same functions without any extra work. We’ve also prepared an encrypter page to migrate all existing data to the new encryption system with ease.

    We will perform planned maintenance to update reForge Captcha and reForge Consent. During this window we are implementing AES‑256‑GCM encryption to protect sensitive data such as IP addresses, ensuring it remains encrypted at all times and is only decrypted for the account holder within the interface. Brief service interruptions may occur while the updates are applied.
