Introduction

This project is a prototype in order to materialize concepts described in the following OWASP cheatsheet, in Leverage an adaptive one-way function section:

https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Password_Storage_Cheat_Sheet#Leverage_an_adaptive_one-way_function

The objective is to propose a example of secure usage/integration of the Argon2 algorithm in Java application to protect password when stored by using:

• The PHC reference implementation of Argon2.
• The Java binding Argon-JVM.

Configuration options

Argon2 options used are defined here.

Argon2 library compilation

The TravisCI integration file .travis.yml show an example of integration of the building of the Argon2 library in the process of build of a project.

Run unit tests

Run the following command line gradlew test from the project root folder to run the tests suites validating that the code provided is functional.
