 * Original Author name has been kept but that does not mean that the method has not been modified.

     | -------------------------------------------------------------------------
     | Hash Method (bcrypt or argon2)
     | -------------------------------------------------------------------------
     | Bcrypt is available in PHP 5.3+
     | Argon2 is available in PHP 7.2
     |
     | Argon2 is recommended by expert (it is actually the winner of the Password Hashing Competition
     | for more information see https://password-hashing.net). So if you can (PHP 7.2), go for it.
     |
     | Bcrypt specific:
     |      bcryptDefaultCost settings:  This defines how strong the encryption will be.
     |      However, higher the cost, longer it will take to hash (CPU usage) So adjust
     |      this based on your server hardware.
     |
     |      You can (and should!) benchmark your server. This can be done easily with this little script:
     |      https://gist.github.com/Indigo744/24062e07477e937a279bc97b378c3402
     |
     |      With bcrypt, an example hash of "password" is:
     |      $2y$08$200Z6ZZbp3RAEXoaWcMA6uJOFicwNZaqk4oDhqTUiFXFe63MG.Daa
     |
     |      A specific parameter bcryptAdminCost is available for user in admin group.
     |      It is recommended to have a stronger hashing for administrators.
     |
     | Argon2 specific:
     |      argon2DefaultParams settings:  This is an array containing the options for the Argon2 algorithm.
     |      You can define 3 differents keys:
     |          memory_cost (default 4096 kB)
     |              Maximum memory (in kBytes) that may be used to compute the Argon2 hash
     |              The spec recommends setting the memory cost to a power of 2.
     |          time_cost (default 2)
     |              Number of iterations (used to tune the running time independently of the memory size).
     |          This defines how strong the encryption will be.
     |          threads (default 2)
     |              Number of threads to use for computing the Argon2 hash
     |              The spec recommends setting the number of threads to a power of 2.
     |
     |      You can (and should!) benchmark your server. This can be done easily with this little script:

     |
     |      With argon2, an example hash of "password" is:
     |      $argon2i$v=19$m=1024,t=2,p=2$VEFSSU4wSzh3cllVdE1JZQ$PDeks/7JoKekQrJa9HlfkXIk8dAeZXOzUxLBwNFbZ44
