[_EVP_KDF-PBKDF1_(7SSL)](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/man/EVPKDF-PBKDF1/7SSL/markdown)                           OpenSSL                          [_EVP_KDF-PBKDF1_(7SSL)](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/man/EVPKDF-PBKDF1/7SSL/markdown)

## NAME
       EVP_KDF-PBKDF1 - The PBKDF1 EVP_KDF implementation

## DESCRIPTION
       Support for computing the **PBKDF1 **password-based KDF through the **EVP_KDF **API.

       The EVP_KDF-PBKDF1 algorithm implements the PBKDF1 password-based key derivation function, as
       described in RFC 8018; it derives a key from a password using a salt and iteration count.

### Identity
       "PBKDF1" is the name for this implementation; it can be used with the **EVP_KDF_fetch()**
       function.

### Supported parameters
       The supported parameters are:

       "pass" (**OSSL_KDF_PARAM_PASSWORD**) <octet string>
       "salt" (**OSSL_KDF_PARAM_SALT**) <octet string>
       "iter" (**OSSL_KDF_PARAM_ITER**) <unsigned integer>
           This parameter has a default value of 0 and should be set.

       "properties" (**OSSL_KDF_PARAM_PROPERTIES**) <UTF8 string>
       "digest" (**OSSL_KDF_PARAM_DIGEST**) <UTF8 string>
           These parameters work as described in "PARAMETERS" in [**EVP_KDF**(3)](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/man/EVPKDF/3/markdown).

## NOTES
       A  typical  application  of  this  algorithm  is  to derive keying material for an encryption
       algorithm from a password in the "pass", a salt in "salt", and an iteration count.

       Increasing the "iter" parameter slows down  the  algorithm  which  makes  it  harder  for  an
       attacker to perform a brute force attack using a large number of candidate passwords.

       No assumption is made regarding the given password; it is simply treated as a byte sequence.
