Hash Generator – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is a hash generator?

A hash generator is a tool that computes a cryptographic hash from your input text using algorithms like SHA‑256, SHA‑1, SHA‑384, or SHA‑512.

What is a cryptographic hash?

A cryptographic hash is a fixed-size string produced from input data by a mathematical function, designed to be a one-way process that is nearly impossible to reverse.

Which hash algorithms are available?

Our tool supports multiple algorithms including SHA‑256, SHA‑1, SHA‑384, and SHA‑512.

What are the uses of hash generators?

Hash generators are used for data integrity checks, secure password storage, digital signatures, and verifying the authenticity of files.

Can the hash be reversed?

No. Cryptographic hashes are one-way functions and cannot be reversed to reveal the original data.
