+Perl-Crypt-Cracklib is a software package that allows for encryption and decryption of passwords using the cracklib library. The software allows for the use of algorithm-based password strength checking functions, as well as functions to generate random passwords. The package also provides support for hashing and salting of passwords to create more secure passwords.
