#### Fix it with `secrets.compare_digest()` { #fix-it-with-secrets-compare-digest }

But in our code we are actually using `secrets.compare_digest()`.

In short, it will take the same time to compare `stanleyjobsox` to `stanleyjobson` than it takes to compare `johndoe` to `stanleyjobson`. And the same for the password.
