Python Password Encryption | Is it useful ?

Python Password

Python Password Encryption is the important aspect in every app because securing a password also secures the user related data and maintains privacy.

Safeguarding your digital assets begins with the strength of your Python passwords. In this comprehensive guide on ‘Python Passwords,’ we unravel the intricacies of creating robust and secure passwords for your applications, ensuring the utmost protection against unauthorized access.

Learn the art of crafting powerful and resilient passwords that go beyond conventional practices, fortifying your defenses in the cyber realm.

Our tutorial not only delves into the technical aspects of password security but also provides practical insights into best practices, empowering you to bolster your Python applications. Enhance your digital security posture, adhere to industry standards

In this blog we will be explaining a way to encrypt your password in python programming.

What is encryption ?

Encryption is the process of converting plain text into a coded form (cipher text) that is unreadable without the appropriate decryption key. Encryption is used to secure data to protect it from unauthorized access or interception during transmission.

There are two primary types of encryption: symmetric encryption and asymmetric encryption.

In symmetric encryption, a single key is used to both encrypt and decrypt the data. The same key that is used to encrypt the data is also used to decrypt it. Examples of symmetric encryption algorithms include AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) and DES (Data Encryption Standard).

In asymmetric encryption, two keys are used: a public key for encryption and a private key for decryption. The public key is made available to anyone who needs to send encrypted data, while the private key is kept secret and used by the intended recipient to decrypt the data. Examples of asymmetric encryption algorithms include RSA (Rivest-Shamir-Adleman) and Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC).

Encryption is used in a variety of applications, such as secure communication over the internet (e.g. HTTPS), secure storage of sensitive information (e.g. passwords, credit card numbers), and digital signatures.

Let’s start with encryption

The first thing is to import hashing library

import hashlib

And then let us try to accept user input using input

password = input("Enter your password: ")

Then start encoding the password using utf-8

password_bytes = password.encode("utf-8")

And can try these ways of encryption

md5_hash = hashlib.md5()
md5_hash.update(password_bytes)
hash_hex = md5_hash.hexdigest()

Then finally print the result

print(f"MD5 hash of '{password}': {hash_hex}")
