In the notebook configuration, set `c.NotebookApp.password` to

Parameters
----------
passphrase : str
Password to hash. If unspecified, the user is asked to input
and verify a password.
algorithm : str
Hashing algorithm to use (e.g, 'sha1' or any argument supported
by :func:`hashlib.new`).
Returns
-------
hashed_passphrase : str
