PasswordHash

Secure password hashing for .NET applications using PBKDF2-SHA512.

Installation

dotnet add package Eniks.PasswordHash

Usage

using PasswordHash;

var hasher = new PasswordHasher();

// Hash a password
string hash = hasher.HashPassword("mypassword");

// Verify a password
bool isValid = hasher.VerifyPassword("mypassword", hash);

In a Service

public class AuthService
{
    private readonly PasswordHasher _hasher = new();
    
    public void RegisterUser(string email, string password)
    {
        string hash = _hasher.HashPassword(password);
        // Save user with hash to database
    }
    
    public bool LoginUser(string email, string password)
    {
        string storedHash = GetUserHash(email);
        return _hasher.VerifyPassword(password, storedHash);
    }
}

Security Options

// Fast (600K iterations) - ~2 seconds
var hasher = new PasswordHasher(HashingOptions.Fast);

// Default (1M iterations) - ~3 seconds  
var hasher = new PasswordHasher(HashingOptions.Default);

// Maximum Security (2M iterations) - ~6 seconds
var hasher = new PasswordHasher(HashingOptions.MaxSecurity);

Features

  • PBKDF2-SHA512 with 1M iterations by default
  • 32-byte salts for rainbow table protection
  • Timing-attack resistant verification
  • Three security presets (Fast/Default/MaxSecurity)
  • Zero dependencies, .NET 9.0 compatible
