Authentication

Authentication has a single authentication id which can have multiple associated credentials. A user can create a username and associate their Facebook and Google login records with their current record and log in with any of them. It is planned that Apex will act as an endpoint for multi-domain multi-site installations - allowing one to associate a login account from one domain to another.

Local authentication uses salt + BCrypt http://codahale.com/how-to-safely-store-a-password/
