Example Inputs
Examples of Real-World Usage
Discover how professionals use this tool to solve real problems and boost productivity.
Password Storage
Hash passwords before storing in databases. Never store plain text passwords - use SHA-256 or SHA-512 with salt for secure password storage.
File Integrity Verification
Verify downloaded files haven't been corrupted or tampered with by comparing SHA hashes. Essential for software downloads and updates.
Version Control & Git
Git uses SHA-1 hashes to track commits and file changes. Understand how version control systems ensure data integrity.
Data Deduplication
Identify duplicate files or content by comparing SHA hashes. Widely used in backup systems and cloud storage.
Digital Signatures
Create message digests for digital signatures. Hash the document, then sign the hash with your private key.
Blockchain & Cryptocurrency
SHA-256 is the foundation of Bitcoin mining and blockchain verification. Essential for understanding cryptocurrency technology.
