sIdentjavascriptlastDetailRowstringPBKDF2Hashname
stringPBKDF2Hash(textString)
dessIndent
Returns the PBKDF2 hash for specified text. This method is preferred above the old MD5 hash for enhanced security.
It uses a default of 9999 iterations. The string that is returned can only be used in the utils.validatePBKDF2Hash(password,thisReturnValue)
to check if this hash is a result of that password.
This will always be false: utils.stringPBKDF2Hash("test") == utils.stringPBKDF2Hash("test"). Because for the same string in multiply calls it will not generate the same hash.
So you can only check it like this: utils.validatePBKDF2Hash("test",utils.stringPBKDF2Hash("test"))
NOTE: PBKDF2 is the key hash function for the PKCS (Public-Key Cryptography) standard, for more info see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PBKDF2
