Better Security/Encryption

Id really love the ability to use a more secure kind of password encryption , and maybe not just for the password , but something that can be used on any field to encrypt the data at rest.

Maybe Oauth for login in the choices as well?


Change password hashing from md5 to passowd_hash

Dear,

For more secure login and saving password securely in MySQL database, I recommended using new feature starting from PHP 5.5 that replacing md5 hashing with password_hash function. Please check this link http://php.net/manual/en/function.password-hash.php
hint: there is a library you could use if php version 5.4 or 5.3

Regards,

I agree , along with a way to transfer the current pw database from md5 to the new hash. Also a way to specify what to use as the salt , random or otherwise.
