Password (abstract)

Namespace: \ParagonIE\Halite

A simplified interface for storing encrypted password hashes (hash then encrypt) for user authentication, powered by our symmetric-key cryptography.

Static Methods

hash()

> public static hash(string $password, EncryptionKey $secret_key): string

Hash a password (with a randomly generated scrypt salt), then encrypt the hash using our symmetric encryption key.

verify()

> public static verify(string $password, string $stored, EncryptionKey $secret_key): boolean

Decrypt the $stored password hash, then verify that it matches the given $password.
