A LITTLE KNOW-HOW

About this tool

Calculate a cryptographic digest of text using the browser’s Web Crypto API. The exact UTF-8 input is hashed, including trailing spaces and line breaks. SHA-256, SHA-384 and SHA-512 are available.

How to use it

  1. 1

    Paste the exact text you want to hash.

  2. 2

    Choose a SHA algorithm and letter case.

  3. 3

    Generate and copy the hexadecimal digest.

Questions, answered

Can the hash be decoded?

Hashes are one-way digests, not reversible encodings. Short or predictable input can still be guessed and checked against its hash.

Should I use this to store passwords?

No. Password storage requires a purpose-built password hashing design with salts and a suitable work factor. This tool computes ordinary text digests.
