They should have used base64 encryption.
- CobrastanJorji 7mo agoThere are performance concerns with base64. Hardware-assisted null-key encryption offers security that's a non-strict superset of base64 encryption and with superior performance.
- hn_acc1 7mo agonull-key encryption is write-once, read-never, so you don't have to cache it.
- HiPhish 7mo agoHow about ROT13? Ideally applied twice for twice the encryption.
- CrazyStat 7mo agoROT13 is cheap enough that you can afford to apply it many more times. I use one million iterations to store passwords securely.

- foobarchu 7mo agoMd5 encryption would be far superior.
