For security reasons and to ensure unfeasibility of password decryption, user passwords are encrypted using a one-way hashing algorithm.

BIC stores only the hash values in the database to authenticate the user.

The following hashing algorithms are available.

  • SHA-256 (default value)

  • SHA-512

Note: If the hashing algorithm is changed, the system updates the database with the recalculated hash value as soon as the user logs in to a BIC application.
