Pbkdf2PasswordEncoder

class Pbkdf2PasswordEncoder extends BasePasswordEncoder

Pbkdf2PasswordEncoder uses the PBKDF2 (Password-Based Key Derivation Function 2).

Providing a high level of Cryptographic security, PBKDF2 is recommended by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).

But also warrants a warning, using PBKDF2 (with a high number of iterations) slows down the process. PBKDF2 should be used with caution and care.

string

The encoded password

Checks a raw password against an encoded password.

bool	true if the password is valid, false otherwise
