PasswordHash Class |
Generates a one-way hashed value using Rfc2898DeriveBytes and 10,000 iterations (slow, in hashing terms)
Every hash is unique. To use, you have to compare the value of the stored hash with plain text.
This example is taken in part from: http://csharptest.net/470/another-example-of-how-to-store-a-salted-password-hash/
string hashedValue = PasswordHash.HashPassword("mysecretpassword"); bool match = PasswordHash.ValidatePassword("mysecretpassword", hashedValue);

SyntaxThe PasswordHash type exposes the following members.
Methods| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | Equals | (Inherited from Object.) |
| GetHashCode | Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.) |
| GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
 | HashPassword |
Returns a hashed password using new, randomly-generated, cryptographically-strong salt.
|
| HashPasswordDelimited |
Returns a hashed password using new, randomly-generated, cryptographically-strong salt.
The returned hash is of the form "base-64-encoded-salt|base-64-encoded-hash".
|
| ToString | (Inherited from Object.) |
| ValidatePassword |
Validates a plain-text string with a previously hashed string.
The provided hash may be a single base-64-encoded salt+hash (as returned by HashPassword(String),
or a pipe-delimited salt+hash (as returned by HashPasswordDelimited(String)).
Note that this method will never throw even if the provided hash value is not a valid hash.

Extension Methods| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | EqualValue |
Determines if the object value is equal to another object. If the two objects are null, then this returns true.
There is special handling for guid comparisons (since a guid could be a string formatted in up to 3 different ways).
If the special guid handling is not performed, then the object.Equals method is used.
