"We don't have a password complexity policy. Passwords are encrypted with salt and SHA-256." -- @Jotform You don't encrypt passwords for authentication, you hash them. Luckily, SHA-256 is a hashing algorithm 👍 but it's not suitable for passwords 👎 pulse.michalspacek.cz/passwo…

The folks behind Slab, the knowledge base & wiki app, created a nice page where they share many security-related things including that they store passwords hashed with bcrypt: slab.com/security/#encryptio… Thumbs up for the transparency @slab & for bcrypt too! pulse.michalspacek.cz/passwo…

"deSEC is a free DNS hosting service, designed with security in mind" (their words) and they use "PBKDF2-based password hashing to secure your sensitive information" (also their words). Nice job @desec_io! (my words this time) 😊 pulse.michalspacek.cz/passwo…
