Salt & Pepper Encrypter is a collection of two PHP functions that will make your password storage more secure. Instead of using just a common hash function, it uses a combination of them along with its own algorithm.For example, lets say you have a password of test. You want to securely store this password in your database, but still be able to authenticate the user. With Salt & Pepper Encrypter, your password could be saved in the database a number of ways such as:
- a94a8fe5ccb19ba61c4c90772d37fb76c2b33323b6937411eff89030e4b50873d391e987982fbbd3n20
- a94a8fe5ccb19ba61c4c0873d391e990772d37fb76c2b33323b6937411eff89030e4b587982fbbd3n30
- a94a8fe5ccb19ba61c4c0873d39c4fa5235fa5fe858060341951c83a1631e987982fbbd3b27
By having such a variable way of storing data you are circumventing hackers from comprimising your data. After storing this in the database, you can check the user's inputted password for correctness as well.
Current Features:
- Creates a seemingly random string for any password
- Uses a site-specific "encryption key"
- Allows you to check a password against a stored string
- Some configurable options
- Debug mode available
