Answer
BCrypt Work Factors control hashing complexity and time.
BCrypt Work Factors determine how computationally intensive the hashing process is, affecting the time required to hash a password. By increasing the Work Factor, you make it harder for attackers to crack hashes through brute force. For example, a Work Factor of 10 means that the hashing is performed 2^10 times, balancing security with performance in a Java application.
