Description

Computes Argon2 password hashes using the reference implementation of the Password Hashing Competition winner. It is useful for developers, administrators, and security tools that need modern password-hashing behavior.

Password hashing protects stored secrets only when parameters, salts, and storage practices are chosen well. Do not treat a hash tool as a full authentication system by itself.
