Argon2Hash(String, Int32, Int32, Int32, Argon2Type, Int32) Method

Hash the given password to an Argon2 hash string.

Definition

Namespace: Gemstone.Security.Cryptography.Argon2Hash
Assembly: Gemstone.Security (in Gemstone.Security.dll) Version: 1.0.170 -- Release Build+ca3065dc8f8b84c59ee38bd3367c3e71f3818071
public static string Hash(
	string password,
	int timeCost = 3,
	int memoryCost = 65536,
	int parallelism = 1,
	Argon2Type type = Argon2Type.HybridAddressing,
	int hashLength = 32
)

Parameters

password  String
The password to hash. Gets UTF-8 encoded before hashing.
timeCost  Int32  (Optional)
The time cost to use. Defaults to 3.
memoryCost  Int32  (Optional)
The target memory cost to use. Defaults to 65536 (65536 * 1024 = 64MB). MemoryCost for detail on calculating the actual memory used from this value.
parallelism  Int32  (Optional)
The parallelism to use. Defaults to 1 (single threaded).
type  Argon2Type  (Optional)
Data-dependent, data-independent, or hybrid. Defaults to hybrid (as recommended for password hashing).
hashLength  Int32  (Optional)
The length of the hash in bytes. Note, the string returned base-64 encodes this with other parameters so the resulting string is significantly longer.

Return Value

String
The Argon2 hash of the given password.
