To hash a password with a secret in python, you can use the hashlib
library and the secrets
module.
Here's an example code block:
main.py596 chars23 lines
In this example, we generate a random secret key using the secrets
module, and then we use the hashlib
library to create a hash object using the SHA-256 algorithm. We update the hash object with the password and secret, and then we get the hashed password as a string using the hexdigest()
method. Finally, we print the original password, secret key, and hashed password for verification.
It's important to note that hashing passwords with a secret key is just one step in a larger process of storing and managing passwords securely. Depending on your specific use case, you may need to take additional steps such as salting the password, using a key derivation function, or storing the hashed passwords securely.
