Class BCryptPasswordEncoder

java.lang.Object

org.springframework.security.crypto.bcrypt.BCryptPasswordEncoder

All Implemented Interfaces:

PasswordEncoder

public class BCryptPasswordEncoder
extends java.lang.Object
implements PasswordEncoder

Implementation of PasswordEncoder that uses the BCrypt strong hashing function. Clients can optionally supply a "strength" (a.k.a. log rounds in BCrypt) and a SecureRandom instance. The larger the strength parameter the more work will have to be done (exponentially) to hash the passwords. The default value is 10.

                             java.security.SecureRandom random)

Method Detail

encode

public java.lang.String encode(java.lang.CharSequence rawPassword)

Description copied from interface: PasswordEncoder

Encode the raw password. Generally, a good encoding algorithm applies a SHA-1 or greater hash combined with an 8-byte or greater randomly generated salt.

Specified by:

encode in interface PasswordEncoder

matches

public boolean matches(java.lang.CharSequence rawPassword,
                       java.lang.String encodedPassword)

Description copied from interface: PasswordEncoder

Verify the encoded password obtained from storage matches the submitted raw password after it too is encoded. Returns true if the passwords match, false if they do not. The stored password itself is never decoded.

Specified by:

matches in interface PasswordEncoder

Parameters:

rawPassword - the raw password to encode and match

encodedPassword - the encoded password from storage to compare with

Returns:

true if the raw password, after encoding, matches the encoded password from storage
