- A few rule of thumb :
- o Never store a password as plain text.
- o Prefer salted methods over non salted ones, and prefer the strongest one (here, SSHA-512 on Studio 2.0, or SSHA)
- o crypt is also a good choice
- o Pick strong passwords, otherwise if someone gets access to the list of passwords, he or she can run a rainbow attack on it.
- o Keep in mind that whatever you do, the password will be passed in clear text from the client to the server. Always use startTLS before any bind, or at least use SSL
