API Authentication with Node Part #8 - Bcrypt Explained
In this video, we'll learn all about Bcrypt! We'll see how we can use it to hash our passwords so that we don't store them in plain text format in our database.
Next, we'll also learn how salting works and why it's needed later on when we want to compare the password user just typed with the hashed version that we have stored in our database.
