README
# Welcome to scrypt
This is a Haskell library providing bindings to [Colin Percival's scrypt implementation](http://www.tarsnap.com/scrypt.html). Scrypt is a key derivation function designed to be far more secure against hardware brute-force attacks than alternative functions such as PBKDF2 or bcrypt.
Details of the scrypt key derivation function are given in a paper by Colin Percival, Stronger Key Derivation via Sequential Memory-Hard Functions: [PDF](http://www.tarsnap.com/scrypt/scrypt-slides.pdf).
