+Using ``scrypt`` with Django
+----------------------------
+
+.. versionadded:: 4.0
+
+scrypt_ is similar to PBKDF2 and bcrypt in utilizing a set number of iterations
+to slow down brute-force attacks. However, because PBKDF2 and bcrypt do not
+require a lot of memory, attackers with sufficient resources can launch
+large-scale parallel attacks in order to speed up the attacking process.
+scrypt_ is specifically designed to use more memory compared to other
+password-based key derivation functions in order to limit the amount of
+parallelism an attacker can use, see :rfc:`7914` for more details.
+
+To use scrypt_ as your default storage algorithm, do the following:

+
+scrypt_ has four attributes that can be customized:
+
+#. ``work_factor`` controls the number of iterations within the hash.
+#. ``block_size``
+#. ``parallelism`` controls how many threads will run in parallel.
+#. ``maxmem`` limits the maximum size of memory that can be used during the

+
+    The minimum memory requirement of scrypt_ is::

+        work_factor * 2 * block_size * 64
