Hash Generator
Generate multiple cryptographic hash values from your text instantly
What is a Hash Generator?
A Hash Generator is a tool that converts any input text into a fixed-length cryptographic hash. Hashing is a one-way process, meaning the original data cannot be reconstructed from the hash. Developers use hash functions for password storage,data integrity verification, and security-sensitive applications.
Supported Hash Algorithms Explained
- MD5 – Fast but cryptographically broken. Useful for checksums, not security.
- SHA-1 – Deprecated for security use, but still found in legacy systems.
- SHA-256 – Widely used in APIs, blockchain, and secure applications.
- SHA-512 – Stronger variant of SHA-2 with longer output.
- SHA-3 – Modern hashing standard with a different internal design.
- RIPEMD-160 – Commonly used in blockchain and cryptographic systems.
