Atanu Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 How to decrypt password which has already been encrypted? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/29665-encryption-and-decryption/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
papaface Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 You dont, i think.A user would set their pw, it would then be encrypted. Stored in a database.Then when the user logs in again the same words must be used in the pw field to generate the same encrypted string. Therefore same password = same string = correct password.Different password = wrong string = incorrect password.

trq Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 If its already been decrypted why do it again? And if it hasn't then we need to know what it was encrypted with, allot of encryption techniques are unreversable.

papaface Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 I think the OP meant encrypted instead of decrypted. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/29665-encryption-and-decryption/#findComment-136155 Share on other sites More sharing options...
