title: Symfony Native Encoder
---
# Description
This is best practice since [Symfony 4.3](20201112120118-symfony_4_3).
This value auto-selects the best possible hashing algorithm, so it
doesn't refer to an specific algorithm and it will change in the future.
The current implementation uses `'sodium'` if possible and otherwise, it
falls back to `'native'`.
The `'native'` config option is associated with the
`NativePasswordEncoder` class, which is the other main change about
password hashers in Symfony 4.3. This new encoder relies both on Symfony
and PHP to select the best possible algorithm.
The current `NativePasswordEncoder` implementation tries to use any of
the Argon2 variants (Argon2i or Argon2id) before falling back to Bcrypt.
However, if the `PASSWORD_DEFAULT` PHP constant changes in the future,
that new algorithm will be selected (if PHP defines it as stronger than
Argon2).
