RustCrypto: Balloon Hash
Pure Rust implementation of the Balloon password hashing function.
About
This crate contains an implementation of the Balloon password hashing function as specified in the paper Balloon Hashing: A Memory-Hard Function Providing Provable Protection Against Sequential Attacks.
This algorithm is first practical password hashing function that provides:
- Memory hardness which is proven in the random-oracle model
- Password-independent access
- Performance which meets or exceeds the best heuristically secure password-hashing algorithms
