bcrypt-ruby provides a straightforward solution for securing user passwords. It offers an easy method for safeguarding sensitive data, protecting against threats such as brute-force attacks and vulnerabilities.
Why is this so important? Well, if you store user passwords in the clear, you're essentially giving attackers free reign. If someone steals a copy of your database, they now have a giant list of emails and passwords to work with. For many users, this means they're vulnerable to identity theft, as they often use the same password for multiple accounts.
As a web developer, it's your responsibility to keep your users' data safe. Blaming your users for not being security experts is not a viable response to this kind of risk. Instead, take advantage of the power of bcrypt to harden your application against these kinds of attacks.
