I used: @code{libscrypt} implements @code{scrypt} key derivation function. It is designed to be far more secure against hardware brute-force attacks than alternative functions such as @code{PBKDF2} or @code{bcrypt}. Let me know if that isn't enough (though I wouldn't know what to say in addition to the above). > OK with these changes, thanks! Applied. Thank you. Regards, --=20 Nicolas Goaziou 0x80A93738
