Hash Generator: MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-512
A hash of your text with all algorithms at once, HMAC with a key, checksum verification and a clear demonstration of the avalanche effect.
What the tool can do
- Six algorithms at the same time: MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, SHA-512, CRC32.
- HMAC with a secret key for verifying the signatures of webhooks and APIs.
- Output in hex (lowercase and uppercase), Base64 and URL-safe Base64; input as text, hex or Base64.
- The “each line separately” mode gives a table of hashes for lists and can be copied into Excel.
- Verification: paste the expected hash and you will find out whether it matches; from its length we will work out the algorithm.
- The avalanche effect: we change one bit and show that about half of the hash bits are different.
MD5 and SHA-1 are considered outdated for protecting data and passwords: use them for checksums and compatibility, and use SHA-256 or higher for security. Storing passwords requires special algorithms (bcrypt, Argon2), not ordinary hashes.
