Description

Hashes and verifies passwords from Python applications using established password-hashing schemes. It helps web services and local tools store password checks safely instead of keeping plain-text secrets.

Use it only with a correct authentication design. Password handling affects account security, so projects should choose current algorithms, protect salts and hashes, and avoid exposing credential data in logs or backups.
