Lessons:- Adding a Secure Password

  Adding a Secure Password

In this section we’ll add the last of the basic User attributes: a secure password used to authenticate users of the sample application. The method is to require each user to have a password (with a password confirmation), and then store an encrypted version of the password in the database. We’ll also add a way to authenticate a user based on a given password, a method we’ll use in Chapter 8 to allow users to sign in to the site.

                The method for authenticating users will be to take a submitted password, encrypt it, and comparetheresult to theencrypted valuestored in the database. If thetwo match, then the submitted password is correct and the user is authenticated. By comparing encrypted values instead of raw passwords, we will be able to authenticate users without storing the passwords themselves, thereby avoiding a serious security hole.
