About SHA-1

What is SHA-1?

SHA-1 (Secure Hash Algorithm 1) is a cryptographic hash function that produces a 160-bit (20-byte) hash value, typically rendered as a 40-character hexadecimal number. It was designed by the NSA and published in 1995.

Features

  • Generates 160-bit (40 hex character) hash
  • Faster than SHA-256 but less secure
  • Deterministic output
  • One-way function
  • Supports text and file hashing
