In PHP, how do I hash strings in Laravel?

In Laravel, you can hash strings using the built-in Hash facade. This is particularly useful for securely storing passwords. Below is an example of how you can hash a string in Laravel.


        use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Hash;

        // Hash a password
        $hashedPassword = Hash::make('your-password');

        // Verify a password against a hashed value
        if (Hash::check('your-password', $hashedPassword)) {
            // The passwords match...
        }
