# Pbkdf2(String) Method
|
||
|
||
|
||
Generates a new <a href="T_CapyKit_Password.md">Password</a> object using the PBKDF2 algorithm with the provided *password*. This overload of the method generates a random salt value for added security.
|

|
||
|

|
||
## Definition
|
||
**Namespace:** <a href="N_CapyKit_Helpers.md">CapyKit.Helpers</a>
|
||
**Assembly:** CapyKit (in CapyKit.dll) Version: 1.0.2
|
||
|
||
**C#**
|
||
``` C#
|
||
public static Password Pbkdf2(
|
||
string password
|
||
)
|
||
```
|
||
**F#**
|
||
``` F#
|
||
static member Pbkdf2 :
|
||
password : string -> Password
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
#### Parameters
|
||
<dl><dt> <a href="https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.string" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">String</a></dt><dd>The clear text password to be hashed.</dd></dl>
|
||
|
||
#### Return Value
|
||
<a href="T_CapyKit_Password.md">Password</a>
|
||
A new <a href="T_CapyKit_Password.md">Password</a> object containing the hashed password and a randomly generated salt.
|
||
|
||
## Remarks
|
||
This method uses the PBKDF2 (Password-Based Key Derivation Function 2) algorithm to generate a new password hash. The algorithm iteratively applies a pseudorandom function to the password and salt, which increases the security of the resulting hash. In this overload, a random salt value is generated using <a href="M_CapyKit_Helpers_SecurityHelper_GetRandomBytes.md">GetRandomBytes(Int32)</a> method.
