Password hashing involves transforming a password into alphanumeric characters using specific algorithms. Hashing proves advantageous when malicious actors compromise data. With hashing, the obtained data is in hash format, rendering it unintelligible. Popular algorithms for password hashing encompass bcrypt and SHA.
In this article, the spotlight will be on utilizing bcrypt for password hashing in Node.js. Here’s an example of hashing plain text:
hash('HeypasswordIsSafe@') = 1b21hb2hb1u2gu3g2fxy1v2ux1v2y3vu12g4u3ggvgu43598sa89da98sd79adshuavusdva9sdguasd
Is this a concept about converting plain text to cypher text. That means converting normal text to non readable text, which means you have to need technique to get original text?
