Frequently asked questions
- Which hash algorithms are supported?
- MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, SHA-512. SHA-256 is recommended for most use cases.
- Is this suitable for password hashing?
- No. Use a dedicated password hashing function like bcrypt or Argon2 for passwords. SHA-256 is for file integrity and data fingerprinting.
- Is MD5 still safe?
- MD5 is cryptographically broken and should not be used for security. It is still fine for quick file integrity checks (checksums).
- Are files uploaded anywhere?
- No. Hashing runs via Web Crypto API entirely in your browser. Your files stay private.
