Hash Generator

Generate MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, and SHA-512 hash digests of your text, all at once.

SHA-256 is recommended for most security purposes — MD5 and SHA-1 are still shown here for compatibility but are not considered collision-resistant anymore.

Frequently Asked Questions

SHA-256 or SHA-512 for anything security-sensitive. MD5 and SHA-1 are fine for checksums or non-security use, but both have known collision weaknesses.

No — hashing is one-way by design. These digests let you verify text matches a known hash, not recover the original input from it.

Each algorithm (MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-512) is generated from the same input so you can compare or copy whichever one you need without re-running the tool.
