Function orion::default::pbkdf2[−][src]

pub fn pbkdf2(
    password: &[u8], 
    salt: &[u8], 
    len: usize
) -> Result<Vec<u8>, UnknownCryptoError>

PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA512 derived key, using 512.000 as iteration count.

Exceptions:

An exception will be thrown if:

  • The length of the salt is less than 16 bytes
  • The specified length for the derived key is less than 14 bytes

Note:

Salts should always be generated using a CSPRNG. The gen_rand_key function in util can be used for this.

Usage example:

use orion::default;
use orion::core::util;

let salt = util::gen_rand_key(64).unwrap();
let password = "Secret password".as_bytes();

let derived_password = default::pbkdf2(password, &salt, 64);
