All development teams should get in the habit of digitally signing their applications, especially before sending to QA or production. Code signing is not only a best practice. It …

In previous posts, we’ve learned about the importance of using a password hashing function like Argon2id to create hashes of passwords that can be safely stored in a database. …

In the past couple of blog posts, I’ve been discussing various password hashing algorithms and how Argon2 (specifically Argon2id) is the algorithm that leading cryptographers recommend. In this post, …

In my last post, I discussed four cryptographic hashing functions that are suitable for password storage. I pointed out that Argon2 (in particular Argon2id) is the hashing function that …

I’ve said it a million times. Passwords are the bane of a developer’s existence. Authentication is incredibly complicated, and much of that rests around password storage. I highly recommend …
