Highlow4278y@quijibo Storing salts right next to the username is fine for verification purposes however salted hash + password + username is stupid bc on simple data breach and they can just hash common passwords with the salt and continue to check. This wasn't some start up ir something this was a security company with one metric f*ckload of users which was facing cyber attacks and should have been more secure
