Yes that's right. The PasswordHashingFFI stuff is all one way encryption. Blowfish is two way, and the current implementation only works for 8 byte chunks. I stopped working on it when the Smalltalk bcrypt implementation I wanted proved to be 5000x times slower than the FFI version. Someone needs to add the CBC part to Blowfish to encrypt longer strings. I do not know of another in image two way encryption scheme, but there may be something in the Cryptography repo. I'm not sure. -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/How-to-encrypt-a-password-tp3933585p4724078.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Developers mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
