The GetPasswordHashAlgorithm
Web service is used as part of the optional client-side encryption feature (see Using Client-Side Password Encryption). It returns the name of the algorithm that the containing application on the server uses to hash passwords, for example MD5, SHA, or SSHA. (Note that only MD5 is currently supported.) Along with a hashKey
, this service allows the client to encrypt the password and pass it to the LoginUser
or CreateUser
Web service over unsecured transport mechanisms.
