Hi,
i'm using Zend_auth for authentication and a javascript on the client form for code the password in md5.
Is this approach secure?

What can I do to increase security?
Thanks

it is semantics. md5 is a 1 way hash and used all over the place. You can create your own hash like the one used on phpbb 5.0. If you use any other type of hashing then the password might not be the same every time so you will have to devise a way to extract a salt sequence. Just make sure your submission is $_POST and you can use ssl.
