xdmp:crypt

xdmp:crypt(
   $password as xs:string,
   $salt as xs:string
) as xs:string

Calculates the password hash for the given password and salt.

Parameters
password	String to be hashed.
salt	Salt to avoid 1:1 mapping from passwords to hashes. Only the first 8 characters of the salt are significant; any characters beyond the eighth are ignored.

You typically use the username as the salt, which ensures that no two hash values will be the same, even if different users have the same password.
