About Cryptographic Hashes
Cryptographic hash functions convert input data into a fixed-size string of bytes. They are one-way functions, meaning you cannot reverse a hash to get the original data.
Supported Algorithms
- MD5 - 128-bit hash, fast but not secure for cryptographic purposes
- SHA-1 - 160-bit hash, deprecated for security use
- SHA-256 - 256-bit hash, secure and widely used
- SHA-512 - 512-bit hash, highest security level
Common Uses
- Password storage and verification
- File integrity verification
- Digital signatures
- Data deduplication
