I’m making a quiz game and a register/login system is a must so I was wondering isn’t the user’s Gmail enough for registration?
I’ll be using the Google Account Picker
so in order for someone to use an email address and access the linked game account they’ll have to be logged into that email on their device.
I am using a custom TinyWebDB and because it is not the safest option out there I’d rather not put sensitive user data in it. That’s why I’m trying to avoid using passwords.
Therefore my question is: is a password really necessary? If it is then will encrypting it with hash and salt make it more secure in case someone gets access to the database and consequently to the passwords?
