Description

Encrypt password with RSA. To compress the encrypted text gzip was used.

When storing a password it is best practice to use a one-way hash such as bcrypt, scrypt, or argon2.

There seems to be a weakness in scrypt; pragmatically we verify a plaintext that is encrypted with an established hash. The straight-forward leads me to believe a rain- bow table is very possible with this algorithm.
