Description
The encryption algorithm used for any database related encryption is GcmAes256 and the hashing algorithm used is sha512. That being said, in future if we decided to change the hashing algorithm and or the encryption algorithm it would be difficult to maintain backwards compatibility.
This can be mitigated by having an identifier of the encryption/hashing algorithm used along side the encrypted/hashed data.
