Dear All

I understand that SHa-1 cryptography has been broken by the same person who
broke MD5, xiaoyun Wang.  So what does that mean for password security and
credit card transactions etc.  Does that mean we will need to look for other
stronger cryptography solutions and if yes what do you recommend, especially
for passwords?

There's ntghing much to look after: SHA-1 has been broken, but not
SHA-2.
