OS: Solaris 10. Python: 2.4.4 on the computer I will be doing my development work. 2.6.4 on the production environment.
I am working on my first python program at work to automate a set of tasks that allows for the results of a radiotherapy plan to be compared to a set of constraints that the plan should meet. The end result will be a report window where items that meet the constraints are flagged green, those requiring physician comment yellow, etc. The form will require two forms of physician approval: one for the overall document and then a line item approval with comments for those items that are not "green". I am still trying to figure out the design while my users merrily keep changing their requirements. This has led me to investigating the electronic sign offs of the end product. This would seem to require (in my mind) a password protected electronic signature for each physician. I have done some cursory searching on this topic, which led me to the concept of hashing passwords for storage. I just read http://www.cyberciti.biz/python-tutorials/securely-hash-passwords-in-python/ which seemed informative, but suggests the use of the module passlib. Unfortunately, I am not allowed to install anything on the production environment, nor can anyone else. The physicians do not seem to care if I password protect their electronic sign offs or not. All of this information is contained on a subset of our private intranet that "supposedly" is protected from outside (of our organization) access, though I am fairly confident that with what little I know I could gain access from my home. If I can, then I am sure that someone knowledgeable and skilled would be able to do the same.
