Update the Digest Algorithm

To ensure you can still log on with your existing credentials (which used the old digest settings), you want to make sure to set the "fallback" digest settings in the mirth.properties file.
  1. Set the "fallback" digest settings in the mirth.properties file.
    For example: 
    digest.fallback.algorithm = SHA256
digest.fallback.saltsizeinbytes = 8
digest.fallback.iterations = 1000
digest.fallback.usepbe = 0
digest.fallback.keysizeinbits = 256
  2. Update the digest.* settings to the new algorithm you want to use.
After Mirth® Connect, is retarted, the new digest settings are used for all new digest values. The "fallback" settings to verify old digest values are also used.
To use the new digest value for your stored password hash in the database, update your user password in the Administrator.
