Frequently Asked Questions

Which hash algorithm should I use?

SHA-256 is the most common choice for general use. SHA-512 provides more security. SHA-1 is considered weak for security purposes but still used for checksums.

Can I hash files?

Currently the tool hashes text input. File hashing support is planned for a future update.

Is MD5 supported?

MD5 is not available through the Web Crypto API. The tool provides SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512 which are all more secure alternatives.
