NAME
    Acme::CPANModules::CryptingPassword - List of modules/tools to
    crypt/hash a password

VERSION
    This document describes version 0.002 of
    Acme::CPANModules::CryptingPassword (from Perl distribution
    Acme-CPANModules-CryptingPassword), released on 2023-07-21.

DESCRIPTION
    Bascally, the Perl's builtin crypt() is all you need. It supports all
    the hashing algorithms supported by your system's C library. You just
    need to supply the salt in the right format to select the hashing
    algorithm. See the function's documentation for more details.

    There are some wrappers and other utilities available on CPAN for added
    convenience.

    Crypt::Password::Util
        Author: PERLANCAR <https://metacpan.org/author/PERLANCAR>

        This module offers a one-argument crypt() which generates an
        appropriate ("reasonably secure") salt for you. There are also
        utility functions to check whether a string looks like a crypted
        password and to find out the type of the crypted password.

    App::bcrypt
        Author: BDFOY <https://metacpan.org/author/BDFOY>

        The distribution provides a "bcrypt" CLI utility to crypt every
        input line with bcrypt. It can also compare a password with its
        crypt.

        Script: bcrypt
