Re: [Pharo-dev] How to encrypt a password?

Hi Mariano, Hash functions are one way (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptographic_hash_function) that's because usually you don't want someone can decrypt password. Cheers Davide Mariano Martinez Peck wrote

Hi Paul, and just to be sure I understand...none of them could work as a two-way encryption, right? The only one is your Pharo's version of Blowfish but that only works with 8 chars long. Is it like this? Or is there any other two-way encryption?

Thanks!
