View In Hierarchy

Secure password hashing using the bcrypt algorithm This is considered by many to be the most secure algorithm but you must first install the bcrypt library. Please be warned that this library depends on native C code and might cause portability issues. This hasher does not first hash the password which means it is subject to bcrypt's 72 bytes password truncation. Most use cases should prefer the BCryptSHA256PasswordHasher.
