Hi Mike, that is a very good suggestion. Just make sure this fits into the architecture well. I'd check the string as it gets stored, not just the used algorithm. With bcrypt, for example, the cost parameter could change in future, so an update in the DB would also be needed.
Please also provide unit tests for this. Thanks a lot in advance!
