python
class LocalDevelopmentConfig(Config):
    SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI = "sqlite:///securedb.sqlite3"
    DEBUG = True
    SECRET_KEY = "this-is-a-secret-key"
    SECURITY_PASSWORD_HASH = "bcrypt"
    SECURITY_PASSWORD_SALT = "this-is-a-salt-key"
    WTF_CSRF_ENABLED = False
    SECURITY_TOKEN_AUTHENTICATION_HEADER = "Authentication-Token"

A user registration request is made with the password "mypassword123". Based on this configuration, which of the following statements is MOST ACCURATE?

  1. A

    The password will be stored as plain text "mypassword123" in the database because WTF_CSRF_ENABLED = False

  2. B

    The password will be hashed using bcrypt with the salt "this-is-a-salt-key" before being stored in the database

  3. C
