🦑Encryption vs Hashing - What's the difference?

Imagine you have a secret recipe for a cake, and you want to share it with a friend.

🤵Encryption:

You lock the recipe in a box with a key and give the box to your friend.

Your friend can unlock the box (with the key you gave them) and read the recipe.

If someone else finds the box without the key, they can't read it.
Key Point: It can be reversed if you have the key (decrypt it).

🧛Hashing:

You put the recipe in a blender and blend it into a unique smoothie.

Now it’s impossible to get the original recipe back from the smoothie.

But if someone else blends the exact same recipe, they’ll get the exact same smoothie.

Key Point: One-way process. You can’t go back to the recipe, but you can check if two smoothies match.

In short:

Encryption is like locking something up—can be unlocked.

Hashing is like turning it into mush—you can’t un-mush it!

As both methods involve turning data into a scrambled form, one might consider these two the same. However, there is a distinction you must know about:

Data is encrypted twice while it’s only hashed once.

One can encrypt/decrypt a piece of data, meaning that the original text can be retrieved back. However, retrieval of plain text isn’t possible if data is hashed once.
