> I encountered couple of issues with cryptography used for password masking:
> * implementation of masked passwords drops initialization vector (IV) randomly generated by the {{javax.crypto.Cipher}} which makes unmasking (decryption) impossible.
> * the implementation is using the same algorithm for key derivation and encryption, which is not possible as there is no encryption support in {{javax.crypto.Cipher}} for PKDBF2 family of algorithms, they are supported only in {{javax.crypto.SecretKeyFactory}}
