Salt & Pepper Encrypter is a collection of two PHP functions that will make your password storage more secure! Instead of using just a common hash function, it uses a combination of them along with its own algorithm!

If you want to securely store this password in your database, but still be able to authenticate the user, Salt & Pepper Encrypter can save your password in the database a number of ways.

By having such a variable way of storing data you are circumventing hackers from comprimising your data. After storing this in the database, you can check the user's inputted password for correctness as well.

Here are some key features of "Salt Pepper Encrypter":
Creates a seemingly random string for any password
Uses a site-specific "encryption key"
Allows you to check a password against a stored string
Some configurable options
Debug mode available.
