What is a Hash?
A hash is a fixed-size string of characters that is generated from an input of any size. It is created by a mathematical function called a hash algorithm. Hashes are used for data integrity, password storage, and digital signatures.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is the difference between hashing and encryption?
Hashing is a one-way process; you cannot reverse a hash to get the original input. Encryption is a two-way process; you can decrypt the data to get the original input.
Which hash algorithm should I use?
For general-purpose hashing, SHA-256 is a good choice. For password hashing, use a slow algorithm like bcrypt or Argon2id.
Is it safe to use this tool with sensitive data?
Yes, all hashing is done on the client-side in your browser. No data is ever sent to our servers.
