- `caching_sha2_password` - Default authentication method in MySQL 8.0+
- `mysql_clear_password` - Cleartext authentication (requires `allowCleartextPasswords=true`)
- `mysql_old_password` - Old MySQL authentication (requires `allowOldPasswords=true`)
- `sha256_password` - SHA256 authentication
- `client_ed25519` - MariaDB Ed25519 authentication
