We have upgraded our password hashing algorithm.

Next time you login or reset your password, the previous hash (based on SHA256 and MD5) will be overwritten with the far more secure bcrypt() algorithm, which is based on Blowfish.

A more involved explanation can be found on our Wiki: Password Hashing

For those interested in the technical details, we're using PHP crypt() with the $2y$07$ hashing specification.

We welcome your feedback and hope you continue to be assured that we take your security seriously. Do note this is not in response to any suspected security issues, but rather the result of our constant measures to self-assess and scrutinize our security practices.
