Question 1

What hash algorithms are supported?

Accepted Answer

Our tool supports MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-512, CRC32, and other popular hashing algorithms. Each serves different security and performance needs.

Question 2

Which hash algorithm should I use?

Accepted Answer

For security purposes, use SHA-256 or SHA-512. MD5 and SHA-1 are considered cryptographically broken. For file integrity checks, CRC32 is sufficient.

Question 3

Can I hash files or just text?

Accepted Answer

You can hash both text input and uploaded files. File hashing is useful for integrity verification and creating checksums.

Question 4

What is the difference between hashing and encryption?

Accepted Answer

Hashing is one-way - you cannot reverse a hash to get the original data. Encryption is two-way - you can encrypt and decrypt data with the proper key.

Question 5

Are the generated hashes secure?

Accepted Answer

Hash generation happens entirely in your browser using proven cryptographic libraries. No data is sent to external servers, ensuring complete privacy.
