SHA Encrypter

Introduction

This online SHA encryption tool helps you generate a secure hash for any string using various SHA algorithms. It’s an efficient way to create cryptographic hashes for data integrity and security purposes.

How to Use This Tool

1. Paste your string directly into the editor or type it in.
2. Click the Encrypt button to generate the SHA hash for your input.
3. After encrypting, you can:
   • Download the hash result.
   • Save or share it using a unique link.
   • Sign in with Google or GitHub to save your hash for future use.

What is SHA?

Secure Hash Algorithms (SHA) are a family of cryptographic hash functions developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) as part of the U.S. Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS). These algorithms are widely used for data integrity, digital signatures, and security protocols.

• SHA-0: The original 160-bit hash function published in 1993 but quickly withdrawn due to a "significant flaw."
• SHA-1: A 160-bit hash function similar to MD5, used in digital signatures. It has known cryptographic weaknesses and is no longer recommended for secure applications.
• SHA-2: A family of hash functions, including SHA-256 and SHA-512, offering stronger security. Variants like SHA-224, SHA-384, SHA-512/224, and SHA-512/256 provide additional options.
• SHA-3: A newer standard (formerly Keccak), chosen through a public competition. It supports the same hash lengths as SHA-2 but uses a different internal structure.

SHA algorithms are essential for verifying data integrity, creating digital signatures, and ensuring secure communication in many modern applications.
