About Argon2

Argon2 is a key derivation function that was selected as the winner of the Password Hashing Competition in 2015. It's specifically designed for password hashing and is resistant to various attacks, including GPU, ASIC, and side-channel attacks.

Argon2 comes in three variants:

  • Argon2i - Optimized for resistance against side-channel attacks, suitable for password hashing
  • Argon2d - Optimized for maximum security against GPU cracking attacks, but potentially vulnerable to side-channel attacks
  • Argon2id - A hybrid approach that combines the best of both worlds and is recommended for most use cases

Parameters:

  • Iterations (Time Cost) - Higher values increase the computational cost
  • Memory Cost - Higher values increase the memory required
  • Parallelism - Number of threads to use
