Number 10
 Data protection by using encryption may often be broken when the encryption keys are weak.

Usually the problem is that either the keys are well known words found in dictionaries, or are simple combination of dictionary words with simple numbers or other words also found in dictionaries.

This class provides a simple solution to improve security of encrypted data by appending an hard to guess hash data to the key, so the actual encryption key is never smaller than a given limit length.
