Function Get-BCryptHash
{
<#
.SYNOPSIS
Gets a hash the string provided using either salt or workfactor provided.
 
.DESCRIPTION
The cmdlet will return a hash of the string provided to it, you can optionally specify a salt to be used, otherwise a salt will be generated on the fly. A workfactor can be specified for the salt generated on the fly.
 
You cannot specify a salt and a workfactor, only one can be specified at any one time. If both are specified an error will be throw.
 
.PARAMETER InputString
[Pipeline] String to be hashed
 
.PARAMETER WorkFactor
[Optional] Workfactor for salt if generating one on the fly
 
.PARAMETER Salt
[Optional] Salt to be used during the hashing process
 
.INPUTS
Accepts strings to be hashed on pipeline (InputString)
 
.OUTPUTS
Hashes of input string
 
.EXAMPLE
Get-BCryptStringHash "MyPassword"
Returns the bcrypt has of the input string "MyPassword" with a random salt, this will produce a different has every time you run this!
 
.EXAMPLE
@("Password1", "Password2", "Password3") | Get-BCryptStringHash -Salt $MyBCryptSalt
