About hash functions: Hash functions convert input data into a fixed-size string of characters. They are one-way functions, meaning you cannot reverse the hash to get the original input. SHA-256 is recommended for security-sensitive applications, while MD5 and SHA-1 are considered cryptographically broken but still useful for checksums.
How to Use
- 1
Enter your text
Type or paste the text you want to hash into the input field.
- 2
Generate hashes
Click the "Generate Hashes" button to compute MD5, SHA-1, and SHA-256 hashes simultaneously.
- 3
Copy results
Use the individual copy buttons to copy any hash to your clipboard.
A cryptographic hash function takes an input and produces a fixed-size string of bytes. The output (hash) is deterministic, meaning the same input always produces the same hash. Even a tiny change to the input produces a completely different hash.

Security Note: MD5 and SHA-1 are considered cryptographically broken and should not be used for security purposes. Use SHA-256 or stronger for any security-sensitive application.
