Is salting a hash really as secure as common knowledge implies?
A salt is an extension added to a password and then hashed, meaning the password is stored in the database as hash(password+salt). But where does one store the salt? … A salt is simply to make rainbow tables "useless", right?
Couldn't an attacker just build a rainbow table, then convert all the hashes and remove the salt? …
