About Cryptographic Hashes
What is a Hash?
A cryptographic hash function converts input data into a fixed-size string of characters. The same input always produces the same hash, but it's computationally infeasible to reverse the process.
Hash Algorithms
- MD5: 128-bit (deprecated, not secure)
- SHA-1: 160-bit (deprecated for security)
- SHA-256: 256-bit (secure, widely used)
- SHA-512: 512-bit (very secure)
Common Use Cases
- Password storage (with salt)
- File integrity verification
- Digital signatures
- Blockchain and cryptocurrencies
