Encrypt the passwords in database #13

Open khushi2912 opened 3 years ago

khushi2912 commented 3 years ago

Currently, the passwords are stored in plain text, which can be seen by anyone who can access the database. This invades privacy and raises security concerns. A better approach would be to convert the passwords into a hash before storing them in the database. Using this, nobody would be able to decode the password through the database and it stays encrypted.

Sure @suprabhat25 , Any Particular approach in mind?

can you send me the repo link of the database ? A test database has been included in the SQL folder, import this in MySQL (after creating a coviddb database).

Using bcrypt will do the task

Will https://github.com/StartBootstrap/startbootstrap-sb-admin-2 be used in place of "url to the organization on GitHub" ?
