title: Algorithm for one way password encryption
body: <p>What is the most secure one way encryption algorithm to encrypt passwords? </p>
  
  <p>MD5 and SHA (1..512) are frequently used, but they are designed for speed what is bad for preventing brute force attacks on encrypted passwords.</p>
  
  <p>The algorithm shouldn't be too exotic, so that it can be used with common programming languages / runtimes like Java, .NET or Python.</p>
