Hash Gen FAQ
What is hashing used for?
Hashing is used for data integrity verification, password storage (with proper salting), digital signatures, and file fingerprinting. A hash is a one-way function—you cannot reverse a hash to get the original input.
Is MD5 still safe to use?
MD5 is cryptographically broken and should not be used for security purposes. It is still useful for checksums and non-security applications. For security, use SHA-256 or stronger.
