You have to check decryption logic/function in your database/application code.

So you're storing your passwords Base64-encoded - that's not encryption, and you might as well be storing the passwords in plain-text.

You should only ever store a salted hash of the password, using a unique salt per record:

"MTIz" is base 64 string. It's mean password is "123". Try it...
