Bcrypt Generator

Generate secure, salted bcrypt password hashes for storing user credentials.

The Bcrypt Generator creates highly secure, slow, and salted hashes using the bcrypt algorithm, the modern standard for storing user passwords securely in databases. Choose your desired cost factor. Generate bcrypt hash now!

Enter text to generate Bcrypt hash. Example: myPassword123

Cost Factor (Security Level)

Higher cost = more secure but slower. Default (10) is recommended for most use cases.

Content to Hash

0 / 1000 characters Bcrypt uses first 72 chars only

How to Use

Step-by-step guide 3 steps

1 Enter Password: Input the user password you need to hash.
2 Set Cost Factor: Choose the desired Cost Factor (Work Factor). Higher factors are more secure but slower to compute. (e.g., 10-12 is common).
3 Generate & Copy: Click "Create Bcrypt Hash". The output includes the salt and the final hash, all in one string, ready for database storage.

FAQ

Common questions 3 questions

Why is Bcrypt the recommended algorithm for password storage?

Bcrypt is intentionally slow to compute, which makes brute-force attacks economically infeasible. It also automatically includes a randomly generated salt within the hash string.

What is the "Cost Factor"?

The Cost Factor determines the number of times the hashing algorithm is run. It should be increased over time as computing power gets cheaper, maintaining the necessary level of difficulty for cracking.

Is Bcrypt slow by design?

Yes. Its intentional slowness is its primary security feature, as it dramatically increases the time and cost required for an attacker to test millions of passwords per second.
