encrypted?? then, it can be decrypted. Why they were not hashed so that it cannot be decrypted. More updates posted here... http://www.medianama.com/2011/05/22

  Yep. Typically passwords are hashed and salted. However, I have seen non-technical folks use the terms hashing and encryption exchangeably. Hopefully thats the case here. Anyways, since CCAvenue didn't store the full CC number (and they definitely didn't store the passcode - for that it redirected to the issuing bank/organization), this doesn't seem to be a very serious issue, even if true.
