What is MD5?

MD5 (Message-Digest Algorithm 5) is a widely used cryptographic hash function that produces a 128-bit (16-byte) hash value. It is commonly used to verify data integrity.

  • Output length: 128 bits (32 hexadecimal characters).
  • No longer considered secure against collisions.
  • Suitable for checksums and data verification, not for security.

What is SHA?

SHA (Secure Hash Algorithm) is a family of cryptographic hash functions. SHA-1, SHA-256, and SHA-512 are common variants, offering different levels of security and output lengths.

  • SHA-1: 160-bit hash, now considered insecure for most purposes.
  • SHA-256: 256-bit hash, widely used and considered secure.
  • SHA-512: 512-bit hash, offering higher security but is slower.
