Hi, please In the T-SQL code below: Which way is better suited to generate a Salt string - the 'hand-rolled' version or concatenating 2 GUIDs (assuming that a salt length of 72 is desired)?
-- Method 1: 'hand-rolling' SET @Salt = '' WHILE LEN(@Salt) < 72 BEGIN SET @Salt = @Salt + CHAR(CONVERT(INT, Floor(RAND() * (126.0 - 33 + 1) + 33))) END -- Method 2: concatenating 2 GUIDs SET @Salt = CONVERT(VARCHAR(36), NEWID()) + CONVERT(VARCHAR(36), NEWID()) Thanks for all input! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to "Crypto++ Users".
