Secure password hashing Secure cookie hashing Automatically updates md5 passwords Can interpret (Non-Portable) PHPass hashes without changing your current user database

Documentation Check out the documentation for code samples and usage.

Purpose There is quite a bit of discussion between stateful and stateless. For a better understanding of stateless cookies and stateless PHP applications, consider reading the article Hardened Stateless Session Cookies (PDF) by Steven J. Murdoch.
