I am searching the internet for what type of hashing algorithm should I use to store passwords in MySQL database and for sending email confirmation messages with hashed token, the algorithm should include: 1- at least 14 chars random salt (uding udev random) 2-a key that will be stored on the server 3-timestamp 4-a very strong and secure hashing algorithm using the function hash_***(is this the best?)
I haven't found elegent code that workds, could you please show me
Thank you
