Hash Generator

Generate one-way cryptographic checksums and hashes for verifying data integrity, password hashes, and digital signatures. Uses the native browser Web Crypto API for SHA-1, SHA-256, and SHA-512, with a lightweight audited implementation for MD5.

Hashes are calculated locally in your browser using the Web Crypto API. No input text is ever transmitted.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is MD5 secure for passwords?

No. MD5 is susceptible to hash collisions and should only be used for legacy checksums, never for modern cryptographic passwords. Use SHA-256 or bcrypt instead.
