See below. Rob Smyth *From:*Robert Smyth *Sent:* Thursday, 16 October 2014 2:59 PM *Subject:* Seeking short term consultant embedded Linux security Hi, We are in need to a Linux expert to assist us in making some decisions on implementing security in our embedded product. I wonder if there is LUV / Security SIG can help us get a message out to people who may be able to assist. We have a need to reuse password hashes between Linux and Windows, so we are looking at the algorithms and formats found in the /etc/shadow file. There is interest in using PBKDF2 or SHA512crypt, but we do not know if the crypt supported algorithms can be extended (e.g. PBKDF2). Can you assist?
