• Is hashing of just "username + password" as safe as salted hashing

  - by randomA

  I want to hash "user + password". EDIT: prehashing "user" would be an improvement, so my question is also for hashing "hash(user) + password". If cross-site same user is a problem then the hashing changed to hashing "hash(serviceName + user) + password" From what I read about salted hash, using "user + password" as input to hash function will…

• Sorting versus hashing

  - by Paul Siegel

  My problem is as follows. I have an array of n strings with m < n of them distinct. I want to create a one-to-one function which assigns each of the m distinct strings to the numbers 0 ... m-1. For example, if my strings are: Bob, Amy, Bob, Charlie, Amy then the function: Bob -> 0, Amy -> 1, Charlie -> 2 would meet my needs. …

• Do encryption algorithms require an internal hashing algorithm?

  - by Rudi

  When I use C# to implement the AES symmetric encryption cipher, I noticed: PasswordDeriveBytes derivedPassword = new PasswordDeriveBytes(password, saltBytesArray, hashAlgorithmName, numPasswordIterations); Why do I need to use a hashing algorithm for AES encryption? Aren't they separate? Or is the hashing algorithm only used to create a…

• Is there a bruteforce-proof hashing algorithm?

  - by Col. Shrapnel

  Well, from the discussion of hashing methods weaknesses, I've got that the only ol' good brute-force is efficient to break. So, the question is: Is there a hashing algorithm which is more steady against brute-force than others?

• extendible hashing

  - by Phenom

  I need to make a program that shows the hash value of a given key, using extendible hashing. In extendible hashing, I know that the buckets split and directories change. So if I make my program, do I have to already know things like if the bucket it hashes to is filled, or do I not have to worry about those things and just compute a hash…

• How to create empty buckets in extendible hashing

  - by Phenom

  I know how to do extendible hashing on paper, but I don't know how it's possible for empty buckets to be created. What would cause empty buckets to be created in extendible hashing? Can you show a simple example?

• Updating password hashing without forcing a new password for existing users

  - by Willem

  You maintain an existing application with an established user base. Over time it is decided that the current password hashing technique is outdated and needs to be upgraded. Furthermore, for UX reasons, you don't want existing users to be forced to update their password. The whole password hashing update needs to happen behind the screen.…

• array size for extendible hashing

  - by Phenom

  If I want to use extendible hashing to store a maximum of 100 records, then what is the minimum array size that I need? I am guessing that an array of 100 would be sufficient, but I could be wrong. I also suspect that I can use a smaller array.

• Implementing password hashing/salting algorithm from crackstation.net

  - by Mason240

  I am trying to implement a password hashing/salting algorithm from crackstation.net, but I am unsure how implement it. Storing the password upon user registration seems to be as simple as passing the password into create_hash(). $password = create_hash($_POST['Password']; I'm not following how to validate upon user login.…

• MD5 Hashing Given a Key in C#

  - by Jared

  I've been looking for a way to hash a given string in C# that uses a predetermined key. On my adventures through the internet trying to find an example i have seen lots of MD5CryptoServiceProvider examples which seem to use a default key for the machine, but none of them that apply a specific key. I need to have a…

• Compile time string hashing

  - by Caspin

  I have read in few different places that using c++0x's new string literals it might be possible to compute a string's hash at compile time. However, no one seems to be ready to come out and say that it will be possible or how it would be done. Is this possible? What would the operator look like? I'm particularly…

• Double hashing passwords - client & server

  - by J. Stoever

  Hey, first, let me say, I'm not asking about things like md5(md5(..., there are already topics about it. My question is this: We allow our clients to store their passwords locally. Naturally, we don't want them stored in plan text, so we hmac them locally, before storing and/or sending. Now, this is fine, but if this…

• djb2 Hash Function

  - by Jainish

  I am using the djb2 algorithm to generate the hash key for a string which is as follows hash(unsigned char *str) { unsigned long hash = 5381; int c; while (c = *str++) hash = ((hash << 5) + hash) + c; /* hash * 33 + c */ return hash; } Now with every loop there is a multiplication…

• Basic memcached question

  - by Aadith

  I have been reading up on distributed hashing. I learnt that consistent hashing is used for distributing the keys among cache machines. I also learnt that, a key is duplicated on mutiple caches to handle failure of cache hosts. But what I have come across on memcached doesn't seem to be in alignment with all…

• Getting Started with Hashing in SQL Server

  Encryption brings data into a state which cannot be interpreted by anyone who does not have access to the decryption key, password, or certificates. Hashing brings a string of characters of arbitrary size into a usually shorter fixed-length value or key. Here's how to get started using it. …

• What's the recommended hashing algorithm to use for stored passwords?

  - by Hissohathair

  Given the known weaknesses of MD5 and the recent (May 2009) weaknesses discussed in SHA1, how should new programs be salting & hashing their passwords? I've seen SHA-256 and SHA-512 suggested. Programming predominately in Ruby on Rails and using PostgreSQL -- but other languages and environments might…
