Frequently Asked Questions
Which hash algorithm should I use?▾
SHA-256 is recommended for most purposes. Use SHA-512 for extra security. Avoid MD5 and SHA-1 for security-critical applications as they have known vulnerabilities.
Can a hash be reversed to get the original text?▾
No. Cryptographic hash functions are one-way — you cannot recover the input from the hash output. That is their core security property.
Why do different inputs produce different length hashes?▾
Each algorithm produces a fixed-length output regardless of input size: MD5 = 128-bit, SHA-256 = 256-bit, SHA-512 = 512-bit.
