Always hash passwords using Laravel's built-in Hash facade. Never store plain-text passwords in your database.
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Hash;
// Storing a hashed password
$user->password = Hash::make($request->input('password'));
$user->save();
// Verifying a hashed password
if (Hash::check($request->input('password'), $user->password)) {
// Password is valid
}
