Argon2 Memory-Hard Function for Password Hashing and Proof-of-Work Applications

Metadata

Publisher: IETF
Doc Type: Informational
Pages: 21
Abstract: This document describes the Argon2 memory-hard function for password hashing and proof-of-work applications. We provide an implementer-oriented description with test vectors. The purpose is to simplify adoption of Argon2 for Internet protocols. This document is a product of the Crypto Forum Research Group (CFRG) in the IRTF.
