What is SHA?

SHA (Secure Hash Algorithm) is a family of cryptographic hash functions designed by the NSA. SHA-256 and SHA-512 are part of SHA-2 and are widely used for data integrity, digital signatures, and password hashing. They produce fixed-size outputs regardless of input size.

How to Use

1. Select your preferred SHA algorithm (SHA-256 recommended)
2. Enter the text you want to hash
3. Click Generate to compute the hash
4. Use the hash for verification or comparison purposes

Algorithm Selection

• SHA-256 is the standard choice for most security applications
• Avoid SHA-1 for security purposes - it has known vulnerabilities
• SHA-512 offers more security but produces longer hashes

Security Note

SHA-2 (SHA-256, SHA-384, SHA-512) is currently considered secure for cryptographic purposes. For password hashing, consider using specialized algorithms like bcrypt or Argon2 which include salting and are designed to be computationally expensive.
