A Wikipedia sign in form requesting a username and password. A password is a word or string of characters used for user authentication to prove identity or access approval to gain access to a resource (example: an access code is a type of password), which is to be kept secret from those not allowed access. The use of passwords is known to be ancient.
Password Hashing. 1  For security reasons, you may want to store passwords in hashed form. This guards against the possibility that someone who gains unauthorized access to the database can retrieve the passwords of every user in the system. 2  The hashed password value is not encrypted before it is stored in the database. When a member attempts to log in, the Personalization module takes the supplied password, performs a similar one-way hash and compares it to the database value. If the passwords match, then login is successful.
