I believe the way it is used is when a user logs in, hash the password they
entered, retrieved the hashed password from the db, and compare them.

Why even bother storing a password in a one way hash if it's only gonna be
used one time?

Look up the function Hash(). I think it was introduced in CF 4.5.
Actually, I just looks at the online cfdocs and don't see it in there, but
it is... maybe introduced in 4.5.1?
There's also a CFX_HASH in the tag gallery that give many more options of
hash types.
