Store a unique salt and a password hash produced by a password-specific, deliberately slow algorithm such as Argon2id, bcrypt, or scrypt. Database encryption remains useful defense in depth, but it does not protect against every database, application, backup, or key compromise. Use password-reset tokens or links rather than recovering existing passwords. Also apply access controls, secure key management, rate limiting, and monitoring." }
