Hash Generator
An online utility to generate cryptographic "fingerprints" (hashes) for your text using popular algorithms like SHA-256, SHA-512, and SHA-1.
What is a Hash?
A hash function is a mathematical algorithm that maps data of arbitrary size to a bit string of a fixed size (a hash). It is designed to be a one-way function, meaning it is infeasible to invert. Any small change in input results in a significantly different output.
How to Use
- Text: Enter the text you want to hash.
- Algorithm: Select your preferred algorithm (SHA-256 is recommended for most modern applications).
- Calculate: View the unique hash string in the results section.
Common Use Cases
- Data Integrity: Checking if a file or data has been tampered with.
- Password Storage: Storing a non-reversible representation of a password in a database.
- Blockchain & Security: Fundamental building block for digital signatures and secure systems.
