How does hash_equals()

How does hash_equals() protect against timing attacks?
⛵ hash_equals() compares two strings in constant time.
⛵ It helps prevent timing attacks by avoiding performance variations.
⛵ Using hash_equals() is crucial when comparing cryptographic hashes or passwords.
⛵ Avoid using simple comparison operators for security-critical comparisons.

Learn how to use PHPs hash_equals() function to compare hashes securely and prevent timing attacks. This lesson focuses on the importance of using hash_equals() for secure string comparison, especially when dealing with sensitive data like passwords. Understand how it helps maintain consistent performance and avoid subtle security flaws in your applications. Ideal for developers who want to enhance security practices in their PHP applications.
