PBKDF2 Encrypt

PBKDF2 Encryption is a specific type of Password-Based Key Derivation Function Encryption (PBKDF Encryption) that uses a pseudorandom function, such as hash-based message authentication code (HMAC), to generate a derived key from a password or a passphrase. PBKDF2 Encryption adds a salt (a random value) and an iteration count (a number of times to repeat the process) to the password or passphrase before applying the pseudorandom function. The derived key can then be used as a cryptographic key for encryption and decryption of data using an encryption algorithm, such as AES. PBKDF2 Encryption is designed to increase the difficulty and time required for attackers to crack the password or the key by brute-force attacks
