About Hash Algorithms
MD5
128-bit hash. Fast but not secure for cryptographic use.
SHA-1
160-bit hash. Deprecated for security-critical applications.
SHA-256
256-bit hash. Secure and widely used. Part of SHA-2 family.
SHA-384
384-bit hash. More secure, larger output.
SHA-512
512-bit hash. Maximum security in SHA-2 family.
Common Uses
Password storage (with salt)
File integrity verification
Digital signatures
Blockchain & cryptocurrencies
Data deduplication
⚠️
Security Notice
All hashing is performed in your browser using the Web Crypto API. For password storage, always use proper password hashing algorithms like bcrypt, Argon2, or PBKDF2 with salt. Never use plain SHA or MD5 for passwords!
