Compare Security Answer

28 Views

Hi,

We have a custom implementation of EP logon page. We have enabled security question, incase user requests for password reset. As you know, security answer is not stored in clear text. And there is no method to compare a clear text with the hashed value (like comparePassword()).

We need to compare the existing hashed value against a clear text.

Can you kindly guide me, how to do?

Thanks and regards

Aarthi

PS: I also tried to set the clear text as a password for another dummy user and compare the password hash value with security hash value. But both the hash values are different for the same clear text.
