if you thought "why is the salt included in the hash and is it save when i store it as it is in my db?" Answer i found: The salt just has to be unique. It not meant to be a secret. As mentioned in notes and docu before: let password_hash() take care of the salt. With the unique salt you force the attacker to crack the hash. The hash is unique and cannot be found at rainbow tables. ---- Server IP: 72.52.91.14 Probable Submitter: 72.52.91.14 ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.password-hash.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/114410 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114410/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114410/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114410/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114410/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114410/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114410/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114410 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/114410 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
