Several cryptographers are sponsoring a new Password Hashing Algorithm to find a password hash that’s more secure than the existing alternatives.

SHA (Secure Hash Algorithm) The basic idea behind a SHA function is to take data of a variable size and condense it into a fixed-size bit-string output. This concept is called hashing.

Bcrypt and Argon2: Algorithms designed specifically for password hashing, offering features like salting and iterative hashing to enhance security. Why Cryptographic Hash Functions Remain Important ...

A hash is a unique string of characters generated by a mathematical function, used to represent data and ensure its integrity in cryptography and blockchain technology.

The research team says it wants to use machine learning models to design hash functions for other types of data and plans to explore learned hashing for databases in which data can be inserted or ...

Researchers have produced a collision in iOS’s built-in hash function, raising new concerns about Apple’s CSAM-scanning system — but Apple says the finding does not threaten the integrity of ...

SHA1 algorithm securing e-commerce and software could break by year’s end Researchers warn widely used algorithm should be retired sooner.
