  "ideal_answer": "No. Passwords must never be stored in plain text or reversibly encrypted. Use a slow, salted password-hashing function such as Argon2id, bcrypt, or scrypt. Database encryption at rest protects against physical theft but does not prevent access by compromised application credentials or injection attacks. Hashing ensures that even if the database is breached, passwords remain computationally infeasible to recover. Use password-reset flows (via email/token) instead of plaintext recovery."
