Quick Start
Generate a SHA-256 hash:Supported Algorithms
SHA Family
- SHA-1: 160-bit hash (legacy, not recommended for security)
- SHA-256: 256-bit hash (recommended for most use cases)
- SHA-512: 512-bit hash (high security)
- SHA3-256: SHA-3 variant, 256-bit
- SHA3-512: SHA-3 variant, 512-bit
Other Cryptographic
- MD5: 128-bit hash (legacy, not secure)
- Blake2b-256: 256-bit hash (fast and secure)
- Blake2b-512: 512-bit hash (fast and secure)
- Whirlpool: 512-bit hash
- RIPEMD-160: 160-bit hash
Non-Cryptographic
- CRC32: 32-bit checksum (fast, for data integrity)
- Adler32: 32-bit checksum (fast, for data integrity)
- FNV1a-32: 32-bit hash (fast, for data integrity)
- FNV1a-64: 64-bit hash (fast, for data integrity)
Use Cases
- Password Hashing: Secure storage of user passwords
- Data Integrity: Verify files haven’t been tampered with
- Digital Signatures: Create and verify digital signatures
- Checksums: Generate checksums for file verification
- API Security: Hash API keys and tokens
- Blockchain: Generate transaction hashes
Security Recommendations
For Password Hashing
- Use SHA-256 or SHA-512 with salt
- Use 1000+ iterations for better security
- Always use unique salt per password
For Data Integrity
- Use SHA-256 for general purpose
- Use CRC32 or Adler32 for fast checksums
- Use Blake2b for high-performance applications
For Digital Signatures
- Use SHA-256 or SHA-512
- Avoid MD5 and SHA-1 (cryptographically broken)
