Protects user accounts by converting plaintext or legacy-stored passwords into secure BCrypt hashes and verifying credentials during authentication to prevent credential theft and user enumeration.
Hash and store a new user's password with the bcrypt helper before saving the user record.

To hash and verify user passwords with bcrypt in a ColdBox application, use the provided dependency injection helpers to hash plaintext passwords during registration and verify credentials with constant-time comparison during authentication.
The best way to migrate legacy password hashes to bcrypt is to upgrade them during user login by verifying the legacy hash and immediately rehashing the plaintext password with bcrypt before storing it.
Bcrypt work factor tuning affects password hashing performance by increasing the computational cost needed to generate each hash, which slows down brute-force attacks but requires careful configuration for production environments.
Yes, you can implement token-based password reset workflows in BoxLang by using the bcrypt helper to securely hash new passwords after validating the reset token during the password change process.
To prevent user enumeration during authentication with bcrypt, apply constant-time verification techniques and ensure your login handlers return generic error messages regardless of whether the username or password was the invalid credential.
