Tool description

A cryptographic hash turns input text into a fixed-length digest. Hashes are useful for integrity checks and fingerprints, but they are not encryption.

How to use

  1. Paste your input text.
  2. Select SHA algorithm.
  3. Hash and copy hex/Base64 output.

Why it’s useful

  • Create fingerprints for content.
  • Compare values for equality without sharing raw text.
  • Debug API signatures and payloads.

Use cases & interpretation

  • Integrity: verify a message hasn’t changed.
  • IDs: build deterministic IDs (non-secret inputs only).
  • Testing: compare outputs across languages.

FAQs

SHA-1 is considered weak for collision resistance. Prefer SHA-256 or stronger for modern applications.
