Hash Generator
Generate cryptographic hashes (MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-512) for text and files with security recommendations.
Security Note: MD5 and SHA-1 are considered cryptographically broken. Use SHA-256 or SHA-512 for security-critical applications.
Hash Generator
Algorithm Information
Recommended (Secure)
- • SHA-256: 256-bit hash, widely used and secure
- • SHA-512: 512-bit hash, highest security
Deprecated (Insecure)
- • MD5: Fast but cryptographically broken
- • SHA-1: Vulnerable to collision attacks
