Encryption refers to a two-way process in which plaintext is converted to ciphertext with the help of a key and this ciphertext can be decrypted back to get the plaintext with the help of the key whereas Hashing is a one-way process of transforming plaintext to hashed text. Since hashing is a one-way process, therefore, it cannot be reversed.
