What is a Hash?

A hash function converts input data into a fixed-size string of characters. The same input always produces the same hash, but it's virtually impossible to reverse the process.

  • • One-way function (cannot be reversed)
  • • Same input = same output
  • • Small change = completely different hash

Common Uses

  • • File integrity verification
  • • Password storage (hashed)
  • • Data deduplication
  • • Digital signatures
  • • Checksum generation
  • • Cache keys
