Have you ever looked at a user record in an ASP.NET Identity’s users table and wondered just what is being saved on the PasswordHash column❓
It looks like this (it’s in base64) :
AQAAAAEAACcQAAAAEJSPbbFM1aeXB8fGRV7RRamLpjzktAF7FjwDWtFx35eol4AxN6vm4zWR9EApc7WPsQ
Apart from maybe satisfying your curiosity, what could you benefit from knowing exactly what’s on that seemingly random sequence of characters❓
Well, you could confidently update from different versions of ASP.NET Identity. 🌀
Also, if you ever get tired of ASP.NET Identity for whatever reason, you could move your user accounts to whatever alternative you found that might be better. ✅
Or, you just want to have a simple users’ table and not have to deal with all of what you need to know to make ASP.NET Identity work. 👥
All of this while still being able to move your user accounts to ASP.NET Identity some day if you choose to do so. ♻️
