FAQ & Algorithm Guide

What is VJ Bcrypt Generator?

It is a secure, client-side tool to generate and verify password hashes. Because it runs in your browser, your data never leaves your device.

Which encryption method should I use?

Argon2id, Scrypt, and PBKDF2 are modern choices for passwords. Bcrypt is still solid and widely supported. <<<<<<< HEAD SHA-256 is better suited for file integrity, not password storage.

What is Bcrypt?

Recommended for Passwords

Bcrypt is a password hashing function designed to be computationally intensive. It uses a "salt" and "rounds" to protect against brute-force attacks.

How many rounds should I use?

<<<<<<< HEAD

12 rounds is a solid minimum for production. Higher is more secure but slower. =======

Why does Bcrypt ignore long passwords?

Bcrypt only uses the first 72 bytes of the input. Longer inputs are truncated, which is why this tool trims for Bcrypt only.

Are MD5 and SHA-1 secure?

Broken / Insecure

No. They are too fast and can be cracked easily. Do not use them for passwords. Only use them for simple checksums.

Can I use this in production?

This tool is excellent for testing, learning, and manual generation. For your own app, you should use a trusted library to implement Bcrypt directly in your backend.
