Security is a major thing on the web nowadays. With the ease of cracking passwords becoming higher and higher and the different encryption methods are failing to be secure enough, what do you use to topple the bots and rainbow tables? I currently use the PHP standard library "PHPass" with a password cost of 12. I have used in the past a method of sha512 with an md5 encrypted string inside, that worked well for awhile, but I decided to go with a standard library instead, as it will be updated with current strengths, which is good. Awaiting your input. Bye! 🙂
Note: PHPass is used by phpBB3, Wordpress 2.5+, bbPress, Vanilla, PivotX 2.1.0+, Chyrp, Textpattern 4.4.0+, and a dev. build of Escher CMS.
