FAQ

What is a hash function?

A hash function converts input data into a fixed-length string. The result is deterministic but designed to be difficult to reverse.

What are hashes used for?

Hashes are used for password storage, file verification, digital signatures and many other cryptographic operations.

Is hashing encryption?

No. Hashing is a one-way function and cannot normally be reversed to retrieve the original input.
