Hello dm-crypt and LUKS team,
I have a simple question regarding a sentence I found on the Fedora wiki in their encryption section. Here's a the quote, "LUKS does provide passphrase strengthening but it is still a good idea to choose a good (meaning "difficult to guess") passphrase."
What is meant by passphrase strengthening exactly and how is it accomplished?
Thank you,
- Adam Peterson
