It does this by utilizing the :class:`pyramid.authentication.AuthTktCookieHelper` class which stores the :term:`identity` in a cryptographically-signed cookie. If a ``request`` does contain an identity, then we perform a final check to determine if the user is valid in our current ``USERS`` store. |
