Security Best Practices

Password Management

Length: Use minimum 12 characters, prefer 16+ for high security

Complexity: Mix uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols

Uniqueness: Never reuse passwords across different accounts

Storage: Use a reputable password manager

Hash Storage

Algorithm: Use Argon2id for new applications

Salt: Always use unique, random salts

Cost: Tune parameters based on your security requirements

Updates: Regularly review and upgrade hash algorithms

Implementation

Randomness: Use cryptographically secure random generators

Timing: Implement constant-time comparison for validation

Rate Limiting: Prevent brute force attacks

Monitoring: Log and monitor authentication attempts
