You can get Security.salt value from below given url

Use 40 char long Salt

Configure::write('Security.salt','#IDjVn^BeZQ_kK)V5oFzk#s&8LSq44zVqN36SP^T');

The above answers have not proven to be successful in CakePHP3.

Configure::Read('Security.salt') will return a blank value.

In-order to read the salt from the configuration file you'll need to include the Security namespace:

use Cake\Utility\Security;

And you can retrieve the value of the salt using:

Security::salt()
