 Security
 ========
 
-Good security is vital to the health and success of many websites. Unfortunately, many developers may cut corners when it comes to security due to a lack of understanding or too large of an implementation hurdle. To make your Yii-based site as secure as possible, the Yii framework has baked in several excellent, and easy to use, security features.

 Hashing and verifying passwords
 -------------------------------
 
-Most developers know that you cannot store passwords in plain text, but many believe it's safe to hash passwords using `md5` or `sha1`. There was a time when those hashing algorithms were sufficient, but modern hardware makes it possible to break those hashes very quickly using a brute force attack.

There was a time when those hashing algorithms were sufficient, but modern hardware makes it possible to break those hashes very quickly using a brute force attack.
 
-In order to truly secure user passwords, even in the worst case scenario (your database is broken into), you need to use a hashing algorithm that is resistant to brute force attacks. The best current choice is `bcrypt`. In PHP, you can create a `bcrypt` hash by using the [crypt function](http://php.net/manual/en/function.crypt.php). However, this function is not easy to use properly, so Yii provides two helper functions to make securely generating and verifying hashes easier.
