🔓 MD5 Algorithm

Produces 128-bit hash values with fast computation speed. Primarily used for file integrity verification. Due to collision vulnerabilities, it's not recommended for password storage or security authentication.

• Output length: 32 characters (hexadecimal)
• Released: 1992
• Security level: ⭐⭐

⚠️ SHA-1 Algorithm

Produces 160-bit hash values, but cryptographic experts have proven it has security vulnerabilities. Major companies like Google have discontinued support. Use SHA-256 or higher versions instead.

• Output length: 40 characters (hexadecimal)
• Released: 1995
• Security level: ⭐⭐

🔒 SHA-256 Algorithm

Produces 256-bit hash values and is the most widely used secure hash standard today. Adopted by Bitcoin, SSL certificates, and other critical applications with excellent balance of security and performance.

• Output length: 64 characters (hexadecimal)
• Released: 2001
• Security level: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

🛡️ SHA-384 Algorithm

Produces 384-bit hash values, providing higher security levels than SHA-256. Suitable for government, financial, and other scenarios requiring extremely high security.

• Output length: 96 characters (hexadecimal)
• Released: 2001
• Security level: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

🔐 SHA-512 Algorithm

Produces 512-bit hash values, offering the highest level of security protection. Suitable for long-term data storage, digital signatures, and other applications requiring maximum security.

• Output length: 128 characters (hexadecimal)
• Released: 2001
• Security level: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

💡 Real-world Applications

File integrity verification, digital signatures, password storage, blockchain technology, API security authentication, data deduplication, and many other practical applications.

• Developer tools: Code integrity verification
• System administration: File monitoring
• Security auditing: Data traceability

Frequently Asked Questions

🤔 What is a hash function?

A hash function is a mathematical function that converts input data of any length into a fixed-length output. The output is called a hash value or digest, which has irreversibility and uniqueness properties.

🔐 Why do we need hash verification?

Hash verification ensures data integrity and detects whether data has been tampered with. Even tiny changes in data will result in completely different hash values.

⚡ Will processing large files be slow?

Modern browsers' Web Crypto API is optimized for fast processing of large files. However, it's recommended to process very large files (> 100MB) in chunks.

🛡️ How is data security guaranteed?

All calculations are performed locally in your browser, and data is not uploaded to servers. This ensures your sensitive information won't be leaked.

🔄 Why do different algorithms produce different hash values?

Different hash algorithms use different mathematical functions and output lengths, so the same input will produce different hash values.

📱 Does it support mobile devices?

Fully supports mobile devices with responsive design ensuring normal operation on phones and tablets.
