The PBKDF2() function creates a secure password hash for a password and a salt by using the PBKDF2 hashing algorithm with 1000 iterations.

This function is NOT SQL compatible. For more information about SQL compatibility, see our documentation.
Hashed values cannot be decoded, usually you check an incoming value against a known value that you hash yourself and check if both values are identical, to verify correctness without knowing the actual value.
Returns a text that contains a hash key of 40 characters. Returns unknown if the salt length is less than 8
