About Hash Functions

  • • MD5: Fast but not cryptographically secure. Good for checksums.
  • • SHA-1: Legacy algorithm, deprecated for security use.
  • • SHA-256: Recommended for most security applications.
  • • SHA-384/512: More secure but slower, for high-security needs.

How to Generate Secure Hashes

Create MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512 hashes for text and files. Essential for data integrity verification and security applications.

1

Enter Text or Upload File

Type or paste text directly, or upload any file to hash. Works with documents, images, and binaries.

2

Select Hash Algorithm

Choose from MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, or SHA-512. SHA-256 is recommended for most use cases.

3

Copy Your Hash

Your hash is generated instantly. Copy it for file verification, password storage, or checksums.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about this tool

SHA-256 is recommended for most purposes - it's secure and widely supported. MD5 and SHA-1 are fast but cryptographically broken - use only for non-security purposes like checksums.

No. Hashing is one-way - you can't reverse a hash to get the original data. Encryption is two-way - encrypted data can be decrypted with the right key. Hashing is for verification, encryption is for confidentiality.
