Hash Generator
Generate secure cryptographic hashes for text and files using SHA-256, SHA-384, SHA-512, and more.
Hash Algorithms Explained
✓ SHA-256
The most widely used secure hash algorithm. Produces a 256-bit (32-byte) hash. Used in SSL certificates, Bitcoin, and file verification.
✓ SHA-512
Produces a 512-bit (64-byte) hash. Offers the highest security level in the SHA-2 family. Ideal for password hashing and high-security applications.
⚠ SHA-1
Deprecated for security use due to collision vulnerabilities. Still used for non-cryptographic purposes like git commit IDs.
✗ MD5
Not secure - vulnerable to collision attacks. Should only be used for checksums, never for security purposes.
