In all cases, it is RECOMMENDED to use a 128- or 256-bit `salt`. Other `salt` lengths SHOULD NOT be used, and the `salt` length SHOULD NOT vary in your protocol/application. See {{security-considerations}} for guidance on generating the `salt`.

For password hashing, it is RECOMMENDED to use a `length` of 256 bits. For key derivation, it is RECOMMENDED to use a `length` of at least 128 bits.
