Q
MAC/HMAC
Hash based authentication code (RFC 2104)
A
Used in transfer protocols https, sftp, ftps, etc
Uses a hash like MD5 or SHA along with a secret key.(just like a digital signature does)
9
Q
Bcrypt
A
Based on the Blowfish cipher.
128 bit salt and encrypts a 192 magic bit.
Incorporates Salt, used mainly for smaller data like passwords.
