Frequently Asked Questions
What hash algorithms are supported?▾
This tool supports SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512. These are all part of the Web Crypto API and run natively in your browser.
Is my data safe when generating hashes?▾
Yes. All hashing happens entirely in your browser using the Web Crypto API. No data is ever sent to a server.
What is the difference between SHA-256 and SHA-512?▾
SHA-256 produces a 256-bit (64 character hex) hash while SHA-512 produces a 512-bit (128 character hex) hash. SHA-512 offers a larger output size but both are considered cryptographically secure.
Can I use this to hash passwords?▾
SHA hashes alone are not recommended for password storage. For passwords, use a dedicated password hashing algorithm like bcrypt or Argon2. This tool is useful for checksums, data integrity verification, and general-purpose hashing.
