What is a Hash Generator?
A hash generator converts your text into a fixed-size string of characters, which is a unique "fingerprint" of that data. Common uses include verifying file integrity, storing passwords securely (though you should use salted hashes for that), and digital signatures.
Supported Algorithms
- MD5: Fast but older. Good for checksums, not recommended for security.
- SHA-1: More secure than MD5 but considered weak against modern attacks.
- SHA-256: The industry standard for security. Used in Bitcoin and SSL.
- SHA-512: Highly secure, producing a longer hash.
