How can companies store passwords safely and keep them away from hackers? Well let's find out!
With all the data breaches lately, it's likely that the password of one of your accounts has been compromised. Hackers now might know the password you've used, but they also might not.. To understand why, we'll take a look at what methods a company can use to protect user passwords. We'll take a look at encryption, hash functions and a multilayer approach!

AMAZING. really appreciated you goign through drop Box's encryption method. started coding 8-9 months ago, doing JS now and just started learning how to use the scrypt function as well as salting passwords etc... watching this video made me excited for all the deeper things you can do... maybe one day i shall make it a goal to recreate and code that level of password security like dropbox has! cool vid. thanks again anyone wanna share their experience with coding thus far? anyone think im doin ok learning this stuff after 8 months? or am i behind.... lol... sometimes i can't tell tbh i still love learning all this stuff regardless lol

My encryption/decryption algorithms I have (for PHP) take in a string, add some salt, some hashing and then locks it with a key then encrypts or decrypts that with a very “quarantined” password that’s been... Treated. It’s strong asf.

Nice video! I have a question: what about saving each password with its encrypted version, using the password itself as encryption key? This way each stored password would have a unique encryption key, instead of a single AES key shared among all the saved passwords.

Excellent video and explaining the technology. However, I have a situation where I don't know how I would adapt the concepts you explained because the scenario is slightly different. Your example works interactively by comparing user passwords with stored hash values. My scenario is for an automated process (no user interaction at all) and the credentials are self-contained in the program package. These must not be known to the user or anyone who can get a hold of the file(s) containing them. Here is a live example … We have a company application that requires administrative rights to execute but our users only have standard Windows user permissions. I repackaged the application into a single EXE executable script to conceal the admin credentials that are included in the script code. However, I discovered that compiling the script is not enough because the EXE file can be decompiled or someone can use other programs to see the contents. How can I adapt the concepts you explained in your video this my scenario? I need to be able to execute a self-contained application package locally (no network or internet resources) and with specific credentials while protecting said credentials from the local user or anyone who might get a hold of the EXE file containing the credentials. The application needs to use these credentials at run time to perform its tasks. Your insight is most appreciated.

Ahh , that is not what he is talking about. If somebody stole the database of passwords. That is what he is referring to. For example a keypass file. Is a store of encrypted passwords. If somebody stole my drive and got them. They can pound on it forever. Eventually I will be long dead and turned to dust. The reason 'Dropbox' does all this is not just for a website long in. It is in case somebody steals the hashed and encrypted storage. You still have a lack of understanding about how this works. As far as the end user logging into a website.

Not only to maintain unique hashes...salting also provides extra security for example you can either append or prepend salt data..that requires lot of effort from hacker to figure out

On 4:38 you said to use different salt but I can't see it happening. If I use different salt, when I have to check the password, I would not know the used hash. If I keep it on the database, I would have the same problem as leaking the password. What I'm missing?
@walterlol
@walterlol 3 жыл бұрын
Excellent video but I am not understanding something: You use salt to generate a unique hash from a password (string). When a user re-logins and you want to see the hash of his password you would also have to RE-ADD that same "unique salt" that was given when the user created the account. How do you know that "unique salt" if it was randomly generated?

You store the hashed password with the salt When you login, it checks if your login user/email exists in the db, if yes, then it adds the salt to the password you typed, then hash the combination and check with the hash
