Enscrypt replaces wordpress authentication protocols with a mechanism that uses the far more secure scrypt hashing algorithm.
Scrypt is a superior hashing algorithm with configurable CPU and memory parameters. As such, when properly configured, it takes long enough and is secure enough to be highly resistant to brute-force attacks.
Enscrypt can be enabled and disabled at-will without interfering with the built-in WordPress authentication mechanism.
