Argon2id vs bcrypt — which is better?

Argon2id is the newer, OWASP-recommended default thanks to its memory-hardness. Bcrypt remains a strong, battle-tested alternative where Argon2 isn't available.

What settings should I use?

OWASP recommends at least 64MB memory, 3 iterations, and 4 lanes of parallelism as a starting point.
