What is a hash generator?

A hash generator applies a cryptographic hash function to input text and returns a fixed-length string that uniquely represents the input. Even a tiny change in input produces a completely different hash. This makes hashes useful for data integrity verification, password storage (with proper salting) and digital signatures.

MD5 vs SHA-1 vs SHA-256 vs SHA-512

MD5 (128-bit) — fast but cryptographically broken. Still used for checksums and non-security purposes. SHA-1 (160-bit) — deprecated for security. Avoid for new systems. SHA-256 (256-bit) — part of SHA-2 family, widely used and currently secure. SHA-512 (512-bit) — stronger version of SHA-2, appropriate for high-security applications.

Is this tool safe?

Yes. Everything runs locally in your browser using the Web Crypto API. No data is ever sent to a server. This means your passwords and sensitive text never leave your device.
