Parameters

userName String: User name to hash.

Return Value

String
The Base64 encoded calculated SHA-2 hash of the userName used as the key for the user roles dictionary.

Remarks

For added security, a hash of the userName is used as the key for accessing roles in the user roles cache instead of the actual userName. This method allows the consumer to properly calculate this hash when directly using the user data cache.
