if the same hash function is used to determine if the passwords match, then if someone finds out what the function is then cant they decrypt the password?

I have watched a few videos on Hashing, this is hand down the best explanation. Thanks!

Lovely simplelearn...
Just read an article about encryption and hashing but you explained clearly. Thank you so much

[rajatbishnoi]

This video is great sir for a beginner but i have a question if the pepper is same for all users and 2 user have same password and pepper wouldn't there be hash collision ?

[agob]

Awesome explanation. Thank you very much!

[savioa]

Will the output(Digest) be the same if i use any hashing algorithms?

[Anonymous_it_is]

Loved the explanation.
Thanks for uploading

Hashing still doesn't protect brute force attack, i.e. randomly guessing the password from the user end. If a user password is weak, e.g. password123, hashing wouldn't help at all.
