Hashes and salts:
A hash algorithm is a mathematical function that takes an input and produces a one-way, fixed-size string of characters. Hash algorithms are extensively utilized for various purposes, including password storage, digital signatures, ensuring data integrity, and supporting numerous cryptographic applications. When hash values are compromised, it can have significant security implications. This is why it's crucial to use strong hash algorithms and incorporate techniques like salting to enhance security.
Hash it is designed to securely hash and salt any password entered in the code.
The program begins by importing the required libraries to enable secure password hashing and salting called bcrypt.
A password is provided, a salt is added, and a hash is generated.
The final output is a print statement containing the hashed password
