Understanding Cryptographic Hashes

What is a Hash Function?

A cryptographic hash function is a mathematical algorithm that transforms input data of any size into a fixed-size string of bytes. The output, called a hash value or digest, appears random and is unique to the input data.

Key Properties:

  • check Deterministic: Same input always produces same output
  • check Fast Computation: Hash can be quickly computed
  • check Pre-image Resistance: Can't find input from hash
  • check Collision Resistance: Hard to find two inputs with same hash

Common Use Cases

lock

Password Storage

Hashing passwords before storage ensures they can't be recovered if database is breached.

verified

Data Integrity

Verify files haven't been tampered with by comparing their hashes.

fingerprint

Digital Signatures

Hashing is fundamental to digital signatures and certificates.
