MD5, SHA-1 and SHA-256 all at once is exactly what I needed for a data integrity verification task. The live update and copy buttons make it extremely fast to use. Best free hash tool online.

The uppercase toggle is essential for comparing hashes from legacy systems that output uppercase. The byte count stat is useful for verifying the input encoding is correct before comparing hashes.

I use this to generate MD5 checksums for file verification workflows. The SHA-256 output alongside is reassuring — MD5 for legacy compatibility, SHA-256 for actual security. Very practical tool.

Uses SubtleCrypto — the browser native crypto API — for SHA-1 and SHA-256. The MD5 implementation is a well-known JS library. Privacy is genuine: zero network requests.

❓ FAQ
Is MD5 secure for passwords?+
No. MD5 is a cryptographic hash function but is not suitable for password storage because it is fast to compute (enabling brute-force attacks) and has known collision vulnerabilities. Use bcrypt, scrypt, Argon2 or PBKDF2 for passwords.
What is MD5 used for today?+
MD5 is used for non-security-critical checksums: verifying file download integrity (the site publishes an MD5, you compare), detecting duplicate files, cache keys and legacy system compatibility where stronger hashes are not required.
What is the difference between MD5, SHA-1 and SHA-256?+
MD5 produces a 128-bit hash (32 hex chars), is fastest but cryptographically broken. SHA-1 produces 160-bit (40 hex chars), is also considered broken for security. SHA-256 (part of SHA-2) produces 256-bit (64 hex chars) and is currently secure.
Are these one-way functions?+
Yes. Hash functions are designed to be one-way — you cannot reverse a hash to get the original input (without brute force). However, simple inputs (short strings, common words) can be found via rainbow tables. Always salt passwords.
What is a hash collision?+
A collision occurs when two different inputs produce the same hash output. MD5 and SHA-1 have demonstrated practical collision attacks. SHA-256 has no known collision attacks and is the current recommended minimum for security applications.
