Using cakephp's Auth component with salted password hashes
- by Malfist
How can I make the Auth component of cakephp create, use and store a random salt with the password?
For a login system in php would this be a suitable outline of how it would work:
users types in username and password, clicks login button.
Checks if user exists in database,
if it does, then retrieve the salt
for that user
hash the password and
salt (would this be done on the
client or server side? I think
client side would be better, but php…
