<pre>public interface <a href="../../../../../src-html/org/apache/shiro/authc/credential/PasswordService.html#line.72">PasswordService</a></pre>
<div class="block">A <code>PasswordService</code> supports common use cases when using passwords as a credentials mechanism.
<p/>
Most importantly, implementations of this interface are expected to employ best-practices to ensure that
passwords remain as safe as possible in application environments.
<h2>Usage</h2>
A <code>PasswordService</code> is used at two different times during an application's lifecycle:
<ul>
<li>When creating a user account or resetting their password</li>
<li>When a user logs in, when passwords must be compared</li>
</ul>
<h3>Account Creation or Password Reset</h3>
Whenever you create a new user account or reset that account's password, we must translate the end-user submitted
raw/plaintext password value to a string format that is much safer to store. You do that by calling the
<a href="#encryptPassword(java.lang.Object)"><code>encryptPassword(Object)</code></a> method to create the safer value. For
example:
<pre>
String submittedPlaintextPassword = ...
String encryptedValue = passwordService.encryptPassword(submittedPlaintextPassword);
...
userAccount.setPassword(encryptedValue);
userAccount.save(); //create or update to your data store
</pre>
Be sure to save this encrypted password in your data store and never the original/raw submitted password.
<h3>Login Password Comparison</h3>
Shiro performs the comparison during login automatically. Along with your <code>PasswordService</code>, you just
have to configure a <a href="PasswordMatcher.html" title="class in org.apache.shiro.authc.credential"><code>PasswordMatcher</code></a> on a realm that has password-based accounts. During a login attempt,
shiro will use the <code>PasswordMatcher</code> and the <code>PasswordService</code> to automatically compare submitted
passwords.
<p/>
For example, if using Shiro's INI, here is how you might configure the PasswordMatcher and PasswordService:
<pre>
[main]
...
passwordService = org.apache.shiro.authc.credential.DefaultPasswordService
# configure the passwordService to use the settings you desire
...
passwordMatcher = org.apache.shiro.authc.credential.PasswordMatcher
passwordMatcher.passwordService = $passwordService
...
# Finally, set the matcher on a realm that requires password matching for account authentication:
myRealm = ...
myRealm.credentialsMatcher = $passwordMatcher

<div class="block">Converts the specified plaintext password (usually acquired from your application's 'new user' or 'password reset'
workflow) into a formatted string safe for storage. The returned string can be safely saved with the
corresponding user account record (e.g. as a 'password' attribute).
<p/>
It is expected that the String returned from this method will be presented to the
<a href="#passwordsMatch(java.lang.Object,java.lang.String)"><code>passwordsMatch(plaintext,encrypted)</code></a> method when performing a
password comparison check.
<h3>Usage</h3>
The input argument type can be any 'byte backed' <code>Object</code> - almost always either a
String or character array representing passwords (character arrays are often a safer way to represent passwords
as they can be cleared/nulled-out after use. Any argument type supported by
<a href="../../util/ByteSource.Util.html#isCompatible(java.lang.Object)"><code>ByteSource.Util.isCompatible(Object)</code></a> is valid.
<p/>
For example:
<pre>
String rawPassword = ...
String encryptedValue = passwordService.encryptPassword(rawPassword);
</pre>
or, identically:
<pre>
char[] rawPasswordChars = ...
String encryptedValue = passwordService.encryptPassword(rawPasswordChars);
</pre>
<p/>
The resulting <code>encryptedValue</code> should be stored with the account to be retrieved later during a
login attempt. For example:
<pre>
String encryptedValue = passwordService.encryptPassword(rawPassword);
...
userAccount.setPassword(encryptedValue);
userAccount.save(); //create or update to your data store
