Verifying A Password Against A Hash
The check method is used to verify a given text-plain string correspond to a given hash. If you are using LoginController, you do not need to use this directory, as this controller automatically call this method.
if (Hash::check('plain-text', $hashedPassword)) {
// The passwords match...
}

The needsRehash is used to determine if the work factor used by the hasher has changed since the password was hashed.
if (Hash::needsRehash($hashed)) {
$hashed = Hash::make('plain-text');
