Cryptography uses salt to scramble encrypted information

HERE’S THE INTERESTING PART

If two users have the same exact data, their encrypted hashes would look identically vulnerable. To fix this, security engineers inject 'Salt'—a string of random characters automatically added to your data before encrypting it. This ensures your final hashed signature looks completely unique, saving you from hackers by essentially seasoning your data.
