Frequently Asked Questions
Are the hash results accurate?
Yes, our generator uses standard cryptographic libraries to ensure 100% accurate hash results that match external tools.
Can I hash files?
Yes, you can upload files up to 10MB for hashing. The tool supports all file types.
Which hash algorithm should I use?
For security applications, use SHA256 or SHA512. MD5 and SHA1 are suitable for legacy compatibility but not recommended for security.
