I’m trying to select a rails login/authentication gem that implements a strong salted hashing algorithm using the best practice methods outlined at this site:
http://crackstation.net/hashing-security.htm
Do you know which Rails gems which can support full login / logout / password recovery + these hashing requirements?
You should check out the
has_secure_passwordclass method.http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveModel/SecurePassword/ClassMethods.html
Here is a railscast on it:
