Proof of Work as an Additional Factor of Authentication
Date: August 2014 Publication: Passwords14 Las Vegas Source 1: https://github.com/jaegerindustries/passwords14/blob/master/ProofOfWorkAsAnAuthenticationFactor.pdf Abstract or Summary:
To safely store passwords, hash stretching algorithms are a must. This create an imbalance where authentication is computationally heavy on one side. We propose adding a proof of work as an authentication factor to restore equilibrium.
